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
I teach a diverse group of sixth and seventh grade students in a small rural town in South Carolina. They are an energetic bunch who love to complete hands-on activities and work together. The more opportunities that they have to work together or compete against one another (friendly of course!) the better.
These curious, creative, and energetic mathematicians love activities that require them to think outside of the box.
They truly enjoy activities that inspire them to take risks and chances. I am so inspired by their willingness to try new things with me every day.
My Project
Instead of seeing groups of students using the same worksheets and white board activities, imagine walking into my classroom and seeing my students collaborating to improve their math skills using hands on skills-practice. They'll also be able to know right away if they got the correct answer by simply flipping the answer case over and checking!
In addition to improving their math skills, students will also improve their social-emotional skills.
These soft skills will be honed through the use of small groups in which students will work together building relationships & learning to work together to achieve a common goal.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
