My Students

I am a first-year mathematics teacher teaching Algebra I and Discrete Mathematics. My students range from those who once detested math to those who adore the problem-solving process. Overall, my students are bursting with personality and are eager, enthusiastic learners. Although math has not been their favorite subject in the past, they are learning to appreciate the beauty of mathematics and strive to understand it more fruitfully.

Problem-solving and conceptual understanding are what I believe to be most important in the classroom in order to combat students' misunderstandings of what true mathematics is really about.

My hope is for students to see mathematics as a creative subject and guide them into becoming critical thinkers.

My Project

Group work is an integral part of my classroom. Students can discover mathematical concepts through games and puzzles which may take them days to figure out. Having whiteboards will greatly help in their collaborative, problem solving work. Ideas are more easily seen among all group members on large boards relative to pieces of paper. These tools will also greatly help me give better feedback on their progress and guide them in the right direction. Seeing group work on large boards will help in assessing group progress and seeing their thinking in real time.
