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 Project

Help me provide my students with hands on and engaging tools to use during math instruction. I will use these tools to provide my students with visual and hands on learning experiences. These tools (money, blocks, tiles, dice, word wall, cubes and place value disks) will allow me to better differentiate my instruction to meet the needs of my diverse students.

"Children must hold math in their hands before they can hold it in their heads." ~Unknown

My goals for this projects and for these resources is to making learning engaging. Math can be a challenging subject, but with the proper tools, my students will be able to deeply learn and truly understand math.
