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.
My Students
My students are from a diverse and high poverty population. They are hardworking and enthusiastic about learning. Every day, they come to school despite hardships and engage in rigorous instruction. Our students take pride in our school. We are their extended family, and they count on us to educate and guide them every day. We have a large group of immigrant students. They are in our classrooms with little or no English skills. Despite their struggles, we perform at a high level.
My Project
My students are need of children’s books for teaching mathematics. The math focus books will be added to our current rebuilding of our library space. We are hoping to use the books, storage bins and rug to have a place to sit and read. We are hoping to promote reading and understanding with these materials. Math literature can spark students’ math imaginations in ways that textbooks or workbooks don’t.
Connecting math to literature can boost confidence for children who love books but are wary of math.
And students who already love math can learn to appreciate stories in an entirely new way.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
