I am a Math Support teacher for 2nd and 3rd graders at the Keshena Primary School. I work with nine classrooms, plus two afterschool groups. It has been quite hectic trying to keep up with each classroom and helping those who need that extra help. This year, I took on the challenge of having a competition in learning their math facts. Each day I gave mad minutes to each classroom, kept a tally of where each student was individually and posted on my bulletin board in front of my classroom. The children were so excited to see where they are at on a daily basis. It turned out to be a huge success. At the end of the contest, those who completed mastering their facts enjoyed a delicious pizza party in my room. It was fun to see them challenging themselves to succeed!
