My Students
Have you ever met fourth graders? Little bundles of energy, nothing excites them more than getting to touch, see, and build their way to understanding.
As one of the top performing charter schools in the state, our school is working daily to help our students achieve their full potential.
The students in my year-round urban charter school are 95% low income. They attend school from 8 am to 5 pm daily. The staff at our charter school works diligently within our rigorous curriculum to help education come alive!
My students struggle with issues that often fall outside the scope of understanding. From poverty to food insecurity, homelessness to incarcerated parents, they face head on many challenges that would make adults crumble. Even with these challenges, they come to school each day trying to put their best foot forward and grow as students, in academics, and as leaders.
My Project
This project has been a brainchild of mine for a while. With these flashcards, games, manipulatives, and activities I will create thematic bags covering the four basic math operations, time, fractions, place value, etc. Students will be able to check out bags for use with upper grade partners or to take home for extra practice with parents and siblings.
These backpacks will not only allow students to get extra practice in skills they are lacking, but will also increase the connection between home and school.
This key piece will create stronger student and stronger relationship and help build student success.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
