"If you grit your teeth, and show real determination, you always have a chance." Charles M. Schulz
My students come from a rural community where grit and hard work are shown every day on the farm, in their homes, and at school.
I teach seventh, eighth, and ninth grade mathematics and sponsor numerous extracurricular activities (Junior High Scholar Bowl, High School National Honor Society, and Math League). I am also an activity room during our daily study hall time for students who have earned the privilege to come to my classroom. I have high expectations for my students and use Whole Brain research techniques to make learning memorable and fun.
My Project
Eagle Hour is a study hall time at the end of each of our school days. Students have the ability to go to any of their teachers and receive extra tutoring for any of their classes. Students also have the opportunity to earn special privileges based on their grades, attendance, and behavior. One of those privileges is coming to my classroom to relax and play games.
The students who come to my classroom are exceptional students who have worked hard in the classroom and I would like to provide them with exciting games to play during Eagle Hour.
My current foosball table is the most popular item during Eagle Hour and it has been played until it is falling apart. My students love the game and funding this project would provide a new table for them to enjoy. The board games and other games would allow the students to relax from their school day while building lifelong friendships.
