My Students
My students are inquisitive, loving, and always looking for ways to support each other in their learning and fun! They love and are constantly asking for more games that incorporate hands on learning. They come to school every day reading to be challenged and continue growing their brains! They inspire me with their persistence to keep trying even if things get hard and even push me to complete my personal goals like drink more water LOL!
Many of my students come to school every day not asking to play on the playground or skip math but asking for more play-centered learning!
I teach 1st grade at a Title I elementary school in southeast Washington, DC. Almost all of my students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, and many face challenges outside of the school building. However, this does not stop my students from showing up each day with a smile and ready to grow their brains.
My Project
At the end of a directed lesson, my students interact with materials for a guided exploration of math. We will use pop and add games to build addition fluency, the allowance game when we learn about money, and pattern blocks during our geometry unit.
The impact of DAP time has been phenomenal on my students' growing interest and success in math!
We will use these materials after engaging in direct model of the learning as a way to engage my kiddos who have different learning styles! I believe every student should learn in the way they love to continue their growth and love of school!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
