My Students
My 4th grade students are part of a Spanish Dual Immersion program. Students in both of my classes are a diverse group, ranging from Special Ed to Gifted.
Meeting the needs of all of these students in Math and ELA instruction is a challenge.
They are a group of bright and driven children. They are competitive, and like a challenge. Our Dual Immersion students are disciplined and have worked hard to master 2 languages, at a young age.
My Project
Reading and writing can help students interpret, analyze and communicate mathematical ideas and concepts. Research shows students comprehend and retain more information when concepts are taught in a cross-curricular fashion. I want to incorporate literacy in my math instruction. These picture books will help my students visualize math concepts in ways a text book cannot. These stories will help students see real-world math connections and applications, which will help solidify their understanding and create motivation for learning. These books will help create excitement and engagement in my math instruction, while helping students relate to the content in a new way.
