This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Students
My school is a co-ed Title 1 institution in North Carolina catering to approximately 700 students from all walks of life. Although we operate on a 100% free lunch system, we are still anchored in excellence. Everyday learning opportunities are provided to our students that allow them to explore, discover, and maximize their potential.
My scholarly Brainiacs are like gems, different yet precious!
They are a bunch of ambitious, hardworking, and willing to learn students. I am committed to my task of ensuring that I provide them meaningful, purposeful, inclusive, and relevant learning experiences daily!!
My Project
Math is the subject many love to hate. But without the right experiences and tools, it may stamp you that mark. Math is everywhere around us, in all shapes, sizes, colors, forms, and patterns. We just need to understand how to manipulate, connect, and reason with our numbers.
I want to provide my scholarly Brainiacs with the opportunities to construct their own cognitive models for abstract mathematical thinking while having fun!
With these manipulatives, my students are on their way to becoming better problem-solvers, critical thinkers, and math lovers! After all, math and success do add up!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
