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

Fun and interactive games and task card activities will motivate students to try harder as 4th grade math is complex. Playing math games will allow students to have more hands-on experiences during learning as well as allow me to assess students' growth/mastery levels in a different way. Today's generation love to play games of all sorts; therefore, I want to incorporate STEM games and task activities to make math more fun for them.

By donating to our project, you will help my 4th grade​ students improve and increase their attention and desire, which will ultimately increase their academic achievement.

My desire is for students to anticipate coming to math class to learn new skills in a fun way. I want them to enjoy their learning experience this year more than ever before! I am excited for an opportunity to enhance our 4th Grade Math Workshop.

Grades 3-5
