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 Students

My classroom is located in the state of Washington. Our students are hardworking, kind, eager individuals.

Our differing cultures, backgrounds, economic statuses, and languages provide richness in the classroom.

However, we also face challenges. One challenge is that we need more materials and resources. There are so many learning opportunities I wish I could have with my students if only I had the means.

My Project

Using literature in math lessons can enhance learning in many ways. It can help build an intangible perception of math skills through illustrations, as well as help students build problem-solving skills. In addition, it can provide a meaningful context for mathematical content, review mathematics concepts, promote the development of number sense, model interesting problems, promote critical thinking, and increase the level of interest. I need Spanish and bilingual math books for our dual-language students.

Math becomes more interesting when a child can make a math connection in a story—if they can do that in multiple languages their interest and learning grows even more!

When children are reading or listening to a book, they learn to recognize that math is used all around them. Students begin to use their prior knowledge to connect math concepts to the outside world. Please help bring many amazing math titles into the hands of my students! Such books include Diez, Nueve, Ocho: Ten, Nine, Eight, El Ascensor Mágico: Elevator Magic, Jacobo, El Constructor: Jack the Builder, Contando Fruta Con Abuelita, and many more awesome titles. Thank you in advance for your generosity!
