My students need a solid curriculum. These materials like the Number Talk Daily Activity Center and the Magnetic Fraction Circles, along with online resource provided from the state, will provide students with a curriculum that is all encompassing.
I work with amazing students at an amazing school! This next year will be my second year teaching at a different school. My school is extremely focused on student success, but unfortunately has a lack of resources for students to have this opportunity. My school has 100% of students on free breakfasts and lunches.
I am blessed to be able to loop up with the same students from this year.
They are amazing kids. Most of them come from broken homes and have little stability in their home lives. I only hope to make a positive impact on their lives for the time that I have them every day.
My Project
I have chosen an array of materials for my 5th grade math students. A chose a couple of daily practice books that I hope to use as a resource to provide students with a daily skill set. I will use these books to make copies for the whole class.
I believe that all my students deserve the chance to love math.
I have chosen a magnetic graph paper that I think will be useful to show students how to work out problems, but also give them the chance to show their classmates their own skills. Along these same lines, I chose some manipulatives that I can use to help students understand have a hands on approach to their learning.
I have also chosen to purchase a set of performance tasks. These will give student the chance to not only learn new math skills, but also apply them to real world and hands on settings!
