Hands-on Math

My students need dry-erase double-sided whiteboards (one side plane white, the other the X-Y coordinate grid) to practice graphing in math class and they need measuring tape to help with measuring non-linear items.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students

I am a high school math teacher who wants to make Math come alive through hands-on and visual activities. My goal is to have all of my students make sense of math.

My school’s motto is “Above the Best” and we are committed to creating positive learning experiences in order for our students to be “Above the Best.”

My students are 9 - 12th graders from a Title One school. They come from challenging backgrounds and most are fighting uphill battles. As a school, we are committed to students’ success in school and in the future.

My Project

An expert in any field becomes an expert through practice. My students would greatly benefit from having their own individual double-sided dry-erase board to practice and sharpen their math skills. One side of the board is plane white for solving equations or making annotations to build a graph. The second side is emblazoned with the X-Y Coordinate Grid so students can graph the many equations encountered in all Math classes.

Students can practice graphing mathematical equations on the dry-erase boards.

These boards are much easier to see than in a notebook and therefore, I, as the teacher, am more able to correct misconceptions and steer students to a better understanding of the Mathematical material.

The second items requested are measuring tapes. My students explore in my Math classroom. The measuring tapes would allow students a more precise way to measure non-linear items.
