Goal

The Fourth Grade Team at Lake Trafford Elementary School in Immokalee is requesting $250 to pay for a subscription to the fantastic and engaging mathematics platform Generation Genius  

 

What will be done with my students

The resources provided for students by this program are not only engaging but also teacher AND students friendly. The program will be used across the grade level for the entire year to boost mathematics engagement and help scaffold the students learning of new skills. We will be using the videos, lesson supports and activities in our classrooms to help assist in student understanding of complicated topics such as fractions, decimals, multiplication and division. Generation Genius is also creating new lessons throughout the year so the content library will only grow as the year progresses.  

 

Benefits to my students

Our students would benefit tremendously from this resource because of the way each math concept is broken down by a video to introduce the topic and then a fun and hands on activity to get the students to really understand the mathematical concepts presented in our lessons. Each lesson and video are rich in mathematical vocabulary, therefore students will learn the vocabulary need for success and they will learn to use it in conversations with their peers. "Math Talk" in our classrooms is so important to show true mastery of the standard. We will also be able to access lessons and videos for previous grade levels to help scaffold students who may have not mastered all concepts as the past few years have been pretty rough on struggling learners. This resource breaks each standard and topic into understandable and digestible bites for our students. Our math curriculum now is good but it is a struggle to really get students to have fun with math. We believe that with the addition of this resource we can create "Mathematical Geniuses" because it will create a genuine love for math and excitement for the challenges it presents.  

 

Budget Narrative

The fourth grade team is departmentalized into 2 groups so we will only have 2 teachers that will focus on the math curriculum. We will therefore need two of the math only Generation Genius subscriptions.
