My Project
These requested items will be used to support my students in Math class. I am a new teacher currently working in an alternative behavioral for middle schoolers in Philadelphia. Many of my students are entering class with a negative perception of math. So many of them lack the confidence in their abilities because traditional math instruction has not worked for them.
I wish to show my students that Mathematics can be not only engaging but super exciting too!
With hands-on tools, games and manipulatives my students will be able to better visualize crucial math concepts and retain information both visually and kinetically! Help me make Math class a transformative experience!
