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

I am currently working on this project to gear up for the 2023-2024 school year. This project includes some of the basics that we use every day and some newer items that will help up the classroom experience in my math class.

I am working to give my 23-24 students the best experience possible.

This year was my first year in the classroom and I tried a ton of different ideas, but now I know what works and what doesn't work. I am looking to fund this project so I can start the next school year off in the right direction.
