My Project
This year my main teaching line will include mixed grade level classes of Tier III RTI. Many of my students have already decided that math is too hard for them. A few have let that thinking expand to other areas of academia and life as well. One way to combat this is to build their growth mindset.
Allowing students exposure to new tools and technologies and having them experience success will help to foster growth mindset.
Through imagining, designing, and creating their projects, students will be able to see the value in persevering toward a goal, even when there are obstacles in the way. A Cricut Maker and vinyl will allow us to make all kinds of designs, decorations, and manipulatives.
My goal is to have students design their own decorations for their water bottles and/or ID badges. This project will also benefit my LEGO Robotics Team when it comes time for competitions.
More than half of students from low‑income households
