My Students
I teach a K-2 bilingual class in an urban school with 85% of the students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. All of my students are brand new to the United States. My students enter my classroom with little or no English. Many of them have never had a school experience in their native country. It is my job to prepare them for the regular education classroom.
My students are currently from 4 different countries, speaking 3 different languages.
My students are all eager and excited to learn.
My Project
My students depend upon hands-on materials for learning math concepts. We have an old wooden base ten blocks set that is missing pieces and difficult to clean. These base ten blocks are the most-used math manipulative in my classroom. I would like to replace this set with a class set of brand new base ten blocks that are plastic and will be easily cleaned.
These base ten blocks really cement the concept of place value and number sense , by providing the students with a tangible object to manipulate.
We also use these blocks when learning addition and subtraction. In addition to the base ten blocks, a new class set of place value mats will be valuable. Two teacher tools will also assist in student learning of place value: a place value flip chart and a magnetic set of base ten blocks.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
