This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Students
My class is from low income families, who live in an inner city community. Most parents work long hours and are unable to take their children outside of the local area.
These children are in need of everyday necessities.
Most of these children do not have what they need to become successful in the classroom.
These children are very sweet and crave attention from adults and other support from around the school. All they want is to find out about the world around us!
My class is inquisitive and want to know everything they can about Math, Science and Social Studies.
My Project
We are learning number sense through bead lines. These items will allow us to visually as well as tactile learn what number sense means.
Number sense is an extremely important skill in every day life.
These items will be used daily, during large group, to develop number sense and help my students grow in their mathematical skills.
The cubes will be used to differentiate learning for the lower students. The bead line will be a visual for all learners.
The other items will be used as support for math stations as a review. The children love to count and these will come in handy to count during our counting collections time.
