My Students

We love our students' ambition to learn. They do a great job of supporting one another in their learning journey. The students that understand the material do a great job of helping the students that don't. No matter where the students are in our classes conceptually, they work hard.

COVID-19 has made math less collaborative and more isolated.

Our goal as a 7th grade team this year has been to bring the students together in creative and productive ways. This project will benefit all of our 7th graders.

My Project

We are requesting PicassoTiles which will help us investigate surface area and volume. As part of our geometry unit, we teach about surface area and volume of 3D objects. With these magnetic tiles, students will gain visual understanding of surface area and volume.

Students will design and build their own objects to make sense of the abstract geometry terms.

This gives students an opportunity to use their creativity in mathematics.

Students will work collaboratively to build their 3D magic. This will build student relationships within the classroom, which we have struggled with during COVID-19 isolation.
