My Students

Students come to school with a variety of life experiences. They strive to feel included and accepted. These kids are filled with the energy to learn and are excited to try new things.

Sometimes they find it difficult to overcome challenging concepts, but with a bit of encouragement and redirection, they work hard at learning new ideas.

The students need extra support and learning materials to really shine. Several students face many hurdles and need the help of others to level the playing field so they can become successful learners.

My Project

Because I am a first year teacher, I do not have a slew of hands-on materials for my students. The Elementary Fraction Kits contains materials that will allow all of the students to have materials available to manipulate fractions. The fraction games add another dimension to learning by appealing to students eagerness to compete.

I love keeping my students engaged and seeing them learn new concepts!

I would love to be able to have math manipulative items that will aid in keeping students engaged. Using hands on materials will allow students to see the concepts they are trying to understand. Students really struggle with understanding fractions. Without visuals it is nearly impossible to understand how much of something a fraction is.

These hands-on fraction kits and games will be a huge help in giving these young, eager learners a firm grasp on understanding fractions.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
