My Project

My students are in third grade and are hard-working students who care about others. They take pride in their work and want to do their best. They’re always ready to explore something new and love hands-on materials in the classroom.

Unfortunately, this class, like so many others is struggling in math.

Only seven out of twenty-one students are on grade level. The rest of the class is one year to two years behind where we would like them to be in math. The Teachers Pay Teachers materials will be used to help supplement their math curriculum. I want to give them leveled work to boost their mathematical thinking while making math fun!
