Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

We know that our students can be successful. Our students need some time to celebrate this success! These supplies will allow us to celebrate all that meet their goals this winter. Once my students successfully complete 5 lessons every week we will use snowflakes to track the weekly goals. Next we will track how many of those goals were met over the month of January and February. The classes with the highest goal will celebrate with a party.

Not surprisingly, students do better when they feel in control of their learning.

Robert Marzano’s (2009) review of research, finds goal setting can produce student learning gains of between 18 and 41 percentile points. Across a variety of grade levels, subject areas, and studies, effective goal-setting practices help students focus on specific outcomes, encourage them to seek academic challenges, and make clear the connection between immediate tasks and future accomplishments (Stronge & Grant, 2014).

With your help our snowflake theme will help our students be excited to work hard and do their best while practicing their math.
