My Students

I have 28 4th grade students in my class. My elementary school serves around 700 students in grades PreK-5th in a more rural area of Arkansas. Approximately 45% of the students in my school are eligible for free and reduced lunch.

The economic and cultural diversity at my elementary school is rich.

Students are not only economically diverse, but they are also culturally diverse. I am excited to see the growth of my students independence. The sky is the limit!

My Project

The items that were chosen for this project all serve the purpose of hands on math learning in the classroom. STEM encourages kids to create using science, technology, engineering and math. I want to provide my students with the opportunity to have items for math that are hands on for a greater understanding of math concepts so they can more easily incorporate STEM into their daily work.

STEM is a growing part of our classroom, our school and our community.

I want my students to feel successful with this growing trend by feeling confident in the area of math at a young age. We will use rulers to measure, dice and flashcards to practice math skills, duct tape and Velcro to create math centered projects and patty paper to understand angles. All of these math skills are important in the field of STEM education.
