My Project

My school is a place where my students feel safe and the freedom to learn. We are a high poverty school, where most students don't have the supplies they need, so we try to do everything we can for them.

Something my students struggle with is penmanship in math.

Which makes it hard to solve problems with success, especially in decimals, multi-digit multiplication, and long division. The graph paper we typically try to use is not an appropriate size for them to write in the boxes. Being able to practice easily by using cm. graph paper and boards gives them the tools they need, until they can do it on their own and properly be able line up place values and long algoritms.
