One specific moment that stood out was during a multiplication review: students rotated through a station with a game that turned fact practice into a competitive team challenge. They were fully engaged, collaborating, and even coaching each other. What used to be a dry review became one of the highlights of the day!\r\n\r\nThey were thrilled! Their eyes lit up when they saw the colorful, hands-on games, and many of them immediately asked, \"Can we play these today?\" There was so much excitement and curiosity—it truly felt like a special occasion. Even students who are usually more reserved were eager to dive in and try the new materials.\r\n\r\nRight now, we're focusing on strengthening problem-solving and critical thinking through multi-step word problems. The math games continue to support these skills by reinforcing foundational concepts like operations, number sense, and fractions. As we move into more complex topics, these resources will remain a key part of our rotations—keeping students engaged, confident, and ready for new challenges.","fullyFundedDate":1579802691690,"projectUrl":"project/math-fun-through-rotations/4708176/","projectTitle":"Math Fun Through Rotations","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Lane","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp1721554_orig.jpg?crop=2544,2544,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1755405933660","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/clovelace"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_99132","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":256,"numTeachers":22,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":94,"percentWhite":0,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":3,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"11.6:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":44.3,"schoolId":99132,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Memphis College Preparatory Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Memphis College Preparatory Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/tennessee/memphis-shelby-county-schools/memphis-college-prep/99132"}
