My Students

Math is all around us! Students should enjoy learning different math concepts through play! In our classroom, students work in math centers to explore and understand new concepts. They have the opportunity to work with their peers and learn from each other.

Students in my classroom would greatly benefit from incorporating more games into the daily curriculum.

Students enjoy and learn best by interacting with their peers and exploring concepts in a fun, creative way. The 28 students in my classroom show their enthusiasm for learning on a daily basis. They enjoy playing games and interacting with their peers. They are all unique with individual personalities and learning styles. They are hard-working and challenge their thinking. Our students attend a public, neighborhood school. My students come from a variety of different backgrounds, which is always celebrated. We encourage students to share their diverse backgrounds with each other.

My Project

My students will use these math games during math centers. They will be able to work with their peers to build on their knowledge of the different concepts. Students love playing games. The incorporation of these new math games would increase their excitement for learning even more! Students would be able to learn new concepts while interacting with their peers. It is important for students to explore and learn from each other, which is what the math games would promote. They will learn and expand their knowledge of fractions, decimals, geometry, measurement, and more.

These math games would be a wonderful addition to our classroom.

This project would improve our classroom by allowing students to explore different math concepts through play. These games will make learning more fun for the students! Playing math games will allow students to expand on their knowledge base and increase their excitement.
