My Students

As a math teacher, I focus my class on preparing my students for the future by teaching them how to problem-solve through engaging puzzles with real-world tools. We use a variety of manipulatives, like playing cards, algebra tiles and technology, to model real-world problems, like finance, physics, and puzzle problems.

My students are rural farm kids with big dreams, ready to take on the challenges beyond high school.

Not only are my students succeeding in the classroom, they are well-rounded teenagers. I teach the student-athletes who are also actively involved in the community through 4H and FFA. Most students engage in traditional sports, as well as rodeo events, raising livestock, and growing crops through their extracurricular events and home lives.

My Project

In Montana, all 11th grade students are required to take the ACT as their exit exam to replace the state end of year tests. However, at my school, Math is an elective course during the 11th grade year. For my five students who made the decision to take math, they are taking AP Statistics. This will allow them an opportunity for college credit, but they are still required to take the ACT.

These preparation materials will help these bright students understand and meet the expectation of the ACT.

I would like to provide them with specifically designed resources to help them achieve success on this high stakes test. The materials will allow me to create engaging lessons and build preparation into the Statistics class in which they are already thriving.
