Excursions Through Hawaii, a Traveling Review

My Students

My students range in grades from 9th-12th. Many of my students have struggled with math in the past which is why I love teaching math. The range in grades and math background allows my students to look towards each other as a resource to help them learn.

My students remember the lesson more when they learn through an activity.

From escape rooms to treasure hunts they have worked hard through engaging activities. The trip to Hawaii will be one more activity to sum up the curriculum for them and encourage a love math.

My Project

Algebra 2 has can be a struggle for students but hands on, interactive experiences are helping them grasp the material. Preparing for the state test can be nerve wrecking for students but learning through a trip to Hawaii will help reassure them of their knowledge.

The students will have several excursions while in Hawaii: surfing, hiking, snorkeling, canoe race, and several other adventures as they work through the review.

The materials needed will allow me make my classroom come allow. When the students are on the "plane ride" working through problems they will receive a drink and snack. One of the excursions is whale watching, as students complete problems correctly they will "see whale," get goldfish to eat. On another adventure the students will go snorkeling as they work through vocabulary terms they will earn the Swedish fish. Each time they earn a reward my students become more motivated to achieve and continue even when the material is difficult.

This enjoyable review will allow my students to be hands on with the material while having fun. The resources for the Hawaii trip such as the clipboards, paper, and snacks will allow the trip to come alive while in my classroom. The results will be more confident students and an enjoyable experience for them as they prepare for the State test. When they are working hands on with material and earning rewards along the way they tend to remember the content better.
