This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Students
My students are inquisitive and love learning. My students come from low income households, so they have a hard time getting the supplies they need. Each day my students enter the class with huge smiles and wonderful attitudes. They work extremely hard each day and they are proud of their progress.
My school does many diverse things to support the needs of the student body.
We serve breakfast, expose the children to a variety of programs. My students have a strong desire for intense hands on learning.
My Project
My students need to build a solid foundation with number sense and place value. I believe giving them the opportunity to use Manipulatives would help them to master certain math skills.
The games would reinforce and allow them to review what they have learned.
This would also allow my students the opportunity to self assess and allow students to know what they have mastered and what they need to work on. Students would become more fluent with addition and subtraction . This foundation would help them with higher order math thinking skills. I would really like to see my students grow greatly in their math proficiency this year!
