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 Students
Choosing Special Education as a career path has changed my outlook on life. I get to spend my days with 24 students from 4th through 6th grade who look at the world around them in a whole new light and it is so rewarding. These kids just want to take in every bit of information I can give them. We laugh together, learn together and grow together.
Our school is a Title I school where 98% of our students qualify for free and reduced priced food.
Not just lunch, breakfast, lunch and dinner. It is a suburb of Phoenix that has a high poverty rate and high crime rate, yet my students come every day with smiles on their faces and want to be here.
The school has an A rating and strives for excellence for all of the students. This proves that coming from poverty and a rough neighborhood does not hold any of our students back. They strive to do their best and are thriving while they with us in.
My Project
My students continue to advance their math skills but have yet to find fun ways to work on solidifying knowledge. We have many games for reading but have overlooked math. While we do have some games that I have learned through workshops over the summer, they are generally for the younger students. My upper elementary aged kids deserve games that will correlate to their content standards.
These books will give us a total of over 100 math games to solidify knowledge and give the kids an alternative to iPads and Chromebooks when they have completed their work.
They will see math as something fun instead of a worksheet they have to complete. I have noticed that the couple new games I have introduced this year have been a hit with the bigger kids but having more options would be even more engaging for them.
