  • Rexy Poo Needs a Vacation Home!

    Funded May 9, 2023

    Rex will be so excited to have a bigger tank when he is not in school! We appreciate your support especially with our classroom pets. Rex brings lots of learning, joy and responsibilities to our class. He will continue to be a big part of our classroom and will continue to do so because of your donations!”

    With gratitude,

    Teacher Kaiser

    This classroom project was brought to life by SONIC Foundation and 5 other donors.

  • Math and Movement

    Funded Nov 3, 2017

    Thank you so much for your support. I am so excited for all the possibilities these wristbands will bring for learning about numbers in the real world. We look forward to getting moving and counting our steps, it's wonderful to know there are so many people in our community we can count on!”

    With gratitude,

    Teacher Kaiser

Fourth graders learn to add, subtract, and estimate using large numbers. What better way to put this work into a real world context, then by measuring our steps? Not only will this give the students a deeper understanding of the meaning of large numbers, by measuring the amount of steps they take in a particular time period, but this will also encourage them to become more physically active! Students will wear the smart bracelets in order to capture data about the amount of steps they take in a regular day. We will use this data in our math work to compare, order, and estimate these large numbers. We will also use addition strategies in order to calculate the amount of steps taken in one week, and use subtraction to compare the difference between our amounts. Using subtraction to compare numbers can be a tricky thing for younger kids to conceptualize, but by placing within the real world context of how much larger or how much smaller our different totals are. The hope is that the students will grow a deeper understanding of how mathematicians work with large numbers and organize data. Additionally, my hope is that the students are motivated to take more steps in order to have larger numbers to work with! We also plan to take a few exciting walking trips in order to gather different sets of data to work with. By combining physical activity and math, the students can enjoy the benefits of both!
