Seven students standing in classroom thumbnail199956
Lynbrook High School seniors in Susan Malizia’s math class recently engaged in a warm-up activity that connected math concepts with Hispanic Heritage Month. The students examined a graph from the Pew Research Center which was featured in the article, “Key facts about U.S. Latinos for National Hispanic Heritage Month.” Students participated in a student-centered discussion about the properties of the graph shown in the article. Through this warm-up activity, the class not only learned about math content, but also cultural information that related directly to them.
