My Students

My classroom is full of energetic and eager to learn children. My goal is to have a classroom full of grade-level readers and mathematicians by the end of the school year! I plan to use decodable reading books as a teaching assistant!

I work in a public Title I elementary school serving students in grades PK - 5 in which such a large percentage of the school population receive free and reduced-price meals; we have been provided a grant to provide free breakfast and lunch to all students.

My classroom consists of 20 first-grade students and me. My students consist of boys, girls, English speakers, and non-English speakers. Additionally, my children vary in their educational abilities with some students demonstrating above grade level behaviors while others have identified special academic needs. The literacy backgrounds of my students are also diverse with some having continuous exposure to books and reading and some having little to no experiences.

My Project

I am requesting base ten place value frames, sand timers. number spinners and addition and subtraction flashcards. I am advancing myself as a teacher in my math instruction to my first graders and as a component, I am looking forward to advancing their materials for independent work time in math.

I want to provide materials that can be differentiated to meet students at their current level so students can use all the materials without frustration and without easy non-beneficial work.

Students will learn how to build numbers from 10 to 150 using place value games. Additionally, during independent work time, students will be able to work on addition and subtraction equations by using flashcards.
