Making Math POP!

Help me give my students 10 x 10 "pop-its" to use as fun and engaging manipulatives. The "pop-its" will be used to practice skip counting and multiplying within 100.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Oro's classroom raised $608

My Students

I work with inner-city students who attend a school with a 98% poverty rate. My students are bursting with energy and excitement for learning new things. Most of my students live within walking distance of the school in a neighborhood facing issues that consist of drugs, prostitution, and homelessness. Many of my students are exposed to countless challenges at a very young age. Our school is constantly dealing with issues related to low attendance rates and absent parents.

Despite their daily challenges, I am looking to provide my students with a safe place that is rich, loving, and filled with meaningful learning experiences.

My students are in need of materials that will positively influence their love of learning. My students make a huge impact on my life and I would like to do the same for them by giving them opportunities, materials, and experiences that will last a lifetime!

My Project

Multiplication is an important skill students learn in third grade math each year. Many of the multiplication standards are considered "power standards", or very important to the students' success for the year. With this being said, it is crucial for all students to master these skills throughout third grade.

I have learned that it is essential for teachers to utilize high interest materials to ensure student success in the classroom.

Over the past couple years, "pop-its" have been highly desired by students which would make them a great manipulative for math! It would be great to have class sets of these in my classroom! We will be using both types of "pop-its" on a regular basis in our 3rd grade math class. The numbered "pop-its" will be used to practice skip-counting in both whole group and small group settings. The 10x10 "pop-its" will also be used in both whole group and small group settings to create arrays to practice multiplication facts through 100.
