Help me give my students an upper-level math manipulative library and discovery cans to enhance their learning. The fractions learning kit and grammar folder games will add a fun challenge.
I love my students because they all come to school with their own special talents. They also come to school with their own special set of circumstances. Many of them struggle with home situations, financial hardships, and social-emotional gaps. We work on a daily basis to be kind, show each other respect and give their very best each and every day. I love them because of their struggles and their successes.
We are a charter school whose mission is to guide students to excellence each and every day.
We do this despite the lack of public funding, as we receive only a small fraction of what traditional public schools receive per pupil. We do this, despite using hand-me-down furniture, books, and supplies. We do this because our school is located in a high-poverty area where the students and families send their children to us to exercise their rights as parents to have options in educating their children.
My students have many dreams & goals including, going to art school, being a fashion designer and joining the military.
My Project
My students have gaps in mathematics and grammar skills. These materials will do wonders to add fun to their day, augmenting our curriculum. These activities will reach all abilities in my classroom and can be done whole-class and as a quiet activity.
These materials will be used as center work, during direct instruction and during our designated "Quiet Time" after lunchtime each day.
They can be integrated into my teaching and can be used from year-to-year. Hands-on activities are a bonus addition that can serve as a grab-and-go activity or to target specific academic needs, as in intervention for struggling learners.
