Thank you to the following investor for funding this grant.
Amgen Foundation - $1,883.00
The goal of this grant is to have students engaged in both math and science by being engaged in hands-on learning. The goal is to increase student performance in these areas of learning.
I currently teach in a Title 1 Transformation school. I am a departmentalized teacher, teaching two classes of second grade students in both science and math. My classrooms are very diverse and include migrant students, as well as, ESE students. I have more than 10 students which are just beginning to learn the English language. Learning will become more meaningful as content areas are integrated and as students become more involved in their learning. Many of my students are below level academically, but I know this can change by having hands-on lessons and being engaged, for example, instead of seeing a picture of a microscope, let's USE a microscope. They can ALL succeed!
Students will show one year's growth in both math and science. Most of my students are performing below level (as low are being in the one percentile on i-ready data). By teaching to the best of my ability and through the support given with these grant tools, I expect to close the gaps in learning and see student growth by ALL students in both of my classes.
All items in the grant are non-consumable. They are all connected to the second grade math and science standards such as rocks and soil, science tools, force and motion, shapes, telling time, addition and subtraction).
