We All Learn Math Differently!

My students need 6 hands on Math materials to engage them in mastering 5th grade math standards.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Kearney (Struckel)'s classroom raised $417

My Students

Each and every day I am finding ways to make learning exciting for my students.They are an amazing bunch of mathematicians and I am proud to be their teacher. At the end of the day I am not wishing that more of them completed their homework or behaved better, I am wishing for more engaging materials.

My students are amazing!

I have two groups of 25 students who all love to learn math. They attend an inner city school in Massachusetts that has been deemed a "Turnaround School" by the state. This means that they have been underperforming on state tests for quite some time. ALL of the students at this school receive free breakfast and lunch. I feel lucky to have all 50 of my mathematicians in my class.

My Project

With these materials I will be able to create a more hands on and engaging math experience for my mathematicians. As the students play these games and work in these centers they will be reinforcing fundamental and higher order thinking skills without even knowing it! By using a more engaging approach I will create a more meaningful learning experience for these scholars. With this comes comprehension of the content, retention of the material, and real life practice of applying the skill we are working on.

We all learn math in a different way and with that we all deserve a chance at that learning.

I want to see all of my mathematicians succeed in mastering the 5th grade math standards. I know their potential is limitless and with these materials I will be able to help students unlock this potential! :)
