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

Our room learns math in as many creative ways as we can. From counting to sharing ideas, numbers are always in our view. One of our favorite ways to learn math is by making our own activity books! These books encourage students to remain highly engaged while reaching their goals of identifying numbers, learning concepts of addition, and more!

With a new binding machine, we can make our books quicker, and last even longer in our classroom!

This product will be a big help in making sure students have quick access to math activity books that they will have a high interest in, keeping them engaged in learning!
