My Project

The math literacy books will provide my students with engaging, age-appropriate experiences that will make learning math concepts more accessible and enjoyable. The Math Start books are designed to present mathematical ideas in a narrative form, helping students to understand and retain complex concepts through stories and real-world applications.

These books and tools will help me reach my diverse learners with varied math understanding.

The goals for this project are to improve students' math skills by providing them with high-quality, engaging materials that reinforce classroom learning with hands-on learning, foster a love for math, enhance literacy skills, and promote independent thinking.

Mrs. Dwyer PS 253 Grades 3-5
