My students want to learn! The materials I have chosen for my students will allow them to use hands on activities to bridge the gap the pandemic has created in their academic progress. Hands-on activities will deepen understanding of concepts that students are struggling with due to being virtual for much of last year. Kids love using whiteboards and markers and using them will provide a fun way for my kids to get immediate feedback as they are working out math problems. My students will use colored counters to gain a better understanding of integers. By using yellow to represent positive numbers and red to represent negative numbers my students will have a hands-on method of working with integers which will deepen their understanding of how integers work. My students will use graph paper and 6 inch rulers to practice graphing equations. They will also use graph paper when working with percents by making 10 x 10 grids to work with. Graph paper will also be used to learn about the coordinate plane and how to graph points on it. They will also label the different parts of the coordinate plane on graph paper and keep it in their interactive notebooks. Rulers, glue and scissors will be used to create foldables for their interactive notebooks. A stand-up desk will be helpful for those students who prefer standing over sitting at a table to work. Nearly all of my students come from low-income households and do not have access to supplies such as pencils, paper and erasers. Having these supplies readily available in my classroom relieves stress and allows more time to focus on learning.
