Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Students

My students attend a public Montessori school in a high poverty neighborhood. We have a very diverse student population and all students receive free breakfast, lunch, and a healthy snack each day. Within our school community, we follow the teachings of Maria Montessori, who believed "The teacher's task is first to nourish and assist, to watch, encourage, guide and induce rather than interfere, prescribe, or restrict."

We respect individuality and foster a love of learning as we guide children toward independence and self-discipline.

Our school serves students from preschool to eighth grade and my classroom is a multi-aged, multi-ability environment for first through third graders. Children can work alone, with a partner, or in collaborative groups. They take responsibility for their learning by completing individualized plans for independent work. The students work on assignments in any order they prefer as long as work is completed within the specified time frame. My students have problem-solving and organizational skills that rival those of many adults!

My Project

Please help me give my students the opportunity to excel in Mathematics with the Hand2Mind Daily Math Fluency kit. Math routines during our community meetings are designed and implemented to develop numeracy and the ability to use mathematical relationships to reason with numbers and numerical concepts.

My students will love participating in Math Talks designed to elicit multiple strategies and provide opportunities for students to reason relationships in numbers.

The large-sized demonstration manipulatives will help to demonstrate key math concepts will benefit all learners, and

using the number string will help them see sets of related math problems designed to teach strategies based on number relationships.
