Help me give my students the materials needed to play and store games related to math concepts. This includes different types of dice, game pawns, markers, erasers, Jenga pieces, and dominoes.
I get to work with awesome students. My classes love being back in school with their friends and being able to learn together. My students push themselves and each other to become better students, learners, and people. I have a wide variety of students from different backgrounds. They all learn differently and I try to create activities and lessons that meet those needs and learning styles. I have a class that is made up of EL students, students with IEP goals, TAG students, and everything in between. It is a low SES district and we have over 120 students in fifth grade.
My Project
Our classroom has been fortunate to be able to spend the start of this year in person. We have been working hard at learning as much as we can. This includes some of the skills that were missed from the shutdown last year as well as the new grade-level content. One way my students like practicing the new skills they learn is by having interactive activities or playing games. I like to find ways to have them practice these skills without always using the computer. This allows them to play with their classmates and help each other when they get stuck. The games I have are in the style of a board game, task cards, or an interactive type of station where they build numbers in order to complete a question. Many of these games require dice, game markers, Jenga pieces, dominoes, or whiteboard markers to play.
Despite having a school year where nothing is normal, these activities are a great way to continue to build community within our classroom.
With the situation surrounding Covid-19 continuing, I know that our in-person setting may not continue throughout the entire school year. All of the materials requested will allow the students to play a wide variety of games throughout the entire school year. Each game is aligned with the content we are learning. There are also a variety of storage items that are included with this project as well in order to keep the materials organized in the classroom or to help me distribute to the students to play at home if we need to switch to virtual learning.
