My Project

I work in a special education math class where all of my students are 3+ grade levels behind. My students struggle with traditional curriculum as it is often abstract and my students struggle with abstract concepts.

I will use these gift cards to buy the 21st Century Math Projects set for all grades.

Because of the span of students' understanding, I plan on using a variety of the projects available. My students can do work ranging from 3rd grade through 8th grade. Projects not only connect the math to real world skills, but it also allows differentiation so that students at different levels can complete the same project.
