My students come from an underserved population. I need to ensure their progress of becoming independent thinkers so they can be an asset to their community. I have the best job in the world, to make a difference. Each day, I have the privilege of instructing students in core subjects. I want them to solve real life problems and come up with solutions for daily problem-solving.
We need Sorry, a collaborative game, for having fun at school while learning basic math facts to bring the math skills up to par and improve their grades for this academic year.
We will be excited to learn to fully participate and learn how to do science and math, and succeed in school while being ready for the challenges ahead and being able to compete with a leveled playing field.
I wish for my students to do challenging tasks and boost critical thinking, speed and accuracy to help coding skills become second nature! My students feel as if it is too challenging and stressful to learn and be on task. These materials will make school a lot of fun and keep them engaged and motivated.
