Goal

My goal is to make math fun and hands on through math games that will be used in the morning math in action lab. I want to see kids excited and eager to come to the lab.  

 

What will be done with my students

Our students at Mike Davis Elementary start arriving on campus at 7:30. School doesn't start until 8am which leaves a perfect 30 min. opportunity for students to attend the morning Math in Action lab. Games will be put out in one half of the lab to practice their addition, subtraction and multiplications facts. The other half of our lab will be set up as a 360 math lab with large white boards (which I already have) . They will use dry erase makers to practice math problems on their boards. The 360 lab allows them to see each others work and talk about strategies.  

 

Benefits to my students

Our kids come from home where both parents are working. Making the math lab available will provide them with extra support in math. I would like to create a fun environment that the students are eager to get to school and be part of. It will feel like they are playing games with their friend yet they will be practicing math facts and growing as learners.
