Math Is Fun

Help me give my students these snacks and connect 4 materials in preparation for EOG. I am planning to make the review more fun by integrating the connect 4 games in throwing the questions to be answered.

My Project

Every year, my goal is to help my students be successful at the end of the year. If not proficient at the EOG, at least there is growth. Since the EOG is approaching in a month, I thought to make the review fun by integrating some games and playing against each other or as a team. I tried tic-tac-toe when we were preparing for the unit test, and I am thinking of using Connect 4 in preparation for the EOG as two teams in the class.

I know that by throwing the review into games, they aren’t learning the concepts that they have forgotten, but they are improving their competitiveness among their peers.

I’m so proud of my students for always showing growth in every MAP test given by the district to determine their level. They deserve to be rewarded after all the testing/assessments so that they will continue to do their best.

After using the Big Connect 4 game in the review, I will use the snacks to reward the team that wins every round/set of games.
