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

Mathematics is not always a student's favorite class. This can be due to their previous struggles with the subject. Help me make a change in high school level mathematics. Students will learn all essential uses of graphing calculators which will allow them to be successful in courses such as AP Statistics and AP Calculus. I love teaching Math, and I want students to have a positive math experience. My students have the potential to excel in Mathematics, Help me make this happen with new calculators. These students are eager to learn, and are willing to take on the academic challenge of AP Math Courses.
