My Students

I teach in a charter school that caters to refugee children from Burma, Nepal, Syria, Myanmar, Ethiopia, and many other countries. These students have often lived in war torn countries and refugee camps before coming to Georgia. They have had little to no exposure to a structured school environment before coming here. At our school, we are trying to provide them with the excellent educational opportunities they deserve with limited resources.

Despite these setbacks, our students are eager to learn and they love coming to school everyday.

Seeing their joy and excitement about learning motivates me to work hard everyday.

My Project

The hands on math kits have a kit for each child with all the materials they will need in the kit. When I meet with a small group of students during math I can hand them each a kit and ask to use the pieces to explore and concepts and ideas about fractions and base 10.

The materials in the kits are versatile enough to teach novice math learners and advanced learners.

The kits are also designed to be easily cleaned up and stored until the next math activity or lesson.
