My Students
My school's goal is to reach and engage all learners through personalizing their learning and building strong relationships. We try to stress the importance of relevant math learning through projects, equity-focused themes and adhering to the whole child in our classrooms. Our student population is extremely ethnically and racially diverse, with a majority of Latinx students. Almost half of our student population quality for free and reduced price lunch. As such, we strive to make our math curriculum meaningful and relevant to our young people!
My Project
As we make the transition back to live learning, our school is proactively trying to make learning as engaging and relevant for all our students. It's our job to make sure that the Chromebooks that they've been given during the pandemic are put to the best use both inside and outside of the classroom.
With a class set of headphones, our students will get back into the habit of practicing listening to learn from each other and outside resources!
We plan to have students watch and listen to various videos during class that are relevant to their lives, culture and communities. We also plan on having our students practice recording themselves make claims and justify their perspectives on relevant topics in class, listening to themselves to revise their stance if needed, listen to their peers to give feedback, and further revise their arguments.
Half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
