Celebrating 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.
I have the privilege of sharing a classroom with future engineers, doctors, teachers, professional athletes, and lawyers. In fact, I have students that are going to create and fill jobs that do not even exist yet. I teach at a Title I school. My room houses two classes of Math/Science made up of 25 students each. The backgrounds that my students come from are diverse. I have many students who are learning to speak English as a second language. We learn a lot from one another. My students eagerly accept challenges and seize every opportunity that is presented to them.
My Project
Third grade is a big year. This is the year my students get to become Multiplication Masters. Math facts are important because they form the building blocks for higher-level math concepts. When a child masters his/her math facts, these concepts will be significantly easier and the student will be better equipped to solve them faster. Math can be compared to languages in some ways. Just like you have to learn to combine letters into words and words into sentences – and we have strategies like phonics and sight words to help kids to learn to read - math facts are the foundation blocks for learning the next level of math
I want to celebrate my students learning their math facts by giving them a personalized shirt.
This shirt will be worn with pride and gives anyone that the student encounters the chance to see just how much of a multiplication master the student is. It is also a way to keep my students in the habit of practicing those facts when they leave the classroom and campus.
