Help me give my students the tools to study probability. This will be my first year teaching probability to students, and I want them to be able to understand beyond the basic level of flipping a coin!
FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Oeckel's classroom raised $217
This project is fully funded
Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
This year, my students are hungry learners! They like to engage with projects as a way to "figure out" what's going on around them. They are brilliant problem solvers!
Probability is THE topic to help my students explore mathematics and make sense of the world around them.
These supplies, from spinners to cards and dice, will give my students the chance to play with basic probability in a way that will help them build the tools necessary to push their learning further.
The various art supplies will further help students express their thinking and gain the confidence to engage with those college-level problems!
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
