Help me give my students the tools to create math projects and interactive notebooks. Students need basic supplies like pencils, markers and poster paper to display their group math projects.
My math students are a diverse group of 6th, 7th and 8th graders living in Cleveland. Many students do not have the means to buy basic school supplies.
Despite not having the lastest technology to learn basic math facts, my students come to school eager to learn and excited to be in math class.
We discover new ways to model math and discuss how math is revelent to their world. They love hands on, engaging and challenging projects. They enjoy working together to solve problems. In our math class students are challenged to find multiple ways to solve math problems.
By working with their peers, students learn different ways to solve problems. These students take great pride in displaying their work.
My Project
Students need to work in groups to present their math projects.
Students need to create colorful, creative and informative posters to display different math concepts that they have learned.
Students will need math tools such as graph paper, posters, rulers, protractors, compasses and calculators to assist in the production of their math creation. Students with their group will have to display their understanding of math concepts that include formulas and graphs.
Just like an artist would display their work, students will hang their projects up around the classroom. Then students will walk around the room and view the math gallery of projects. They can leave comments about the projects and ask questions from the group members who created the math project. Students can then get ideas from the math gallery walk to create interactive notebooks.
