Project Title: We Belong in Math: Fostering Math Confidence and Identity in Underserved Students
\nProject Description:<\/p>\n
The goal of this project is to provide 10 grants to Title 1 schools in five low-income Florida county school districts (Citrus, Columbia, Hernando, Highlands, and Marion). This would enable them to host math festivals during the September 2024 to June 2025 school year. This means 2000 students will engage in math activities that strengthen critical-thinking skills and foster a positive math identity.<\/p>\n
At a math festival, students and families explore a variety of fun, hands-on, standards-aligned math puzzles and games. JRMF trains volunteers (parents, teachers, or older students) from the school community to lead math activities and to provide motivation and encouragement along the way. Math festivals take place during the school day, reaching every student in a school or grade level, and\/or in the evening as a family math night, giving parents an opportunity to explore and learn about play-based math alongside their children. <\/p>\n
Each school will receive:<\/p>\n
– a Math Festival in a Box, a kit that contains resources for 10 JRMF activities that can serve over 100 students. These kits are reusable, and the intent is for schools to host regular math festivals and\/or use the activities in their classrooms. <\/p>\n
– training on how to lead a math festival, how to use the activities to engage students during the festival and afterwards in their classrooms.
\nWe are in our second year of running a similar successful program supported by the PPG Foundation in Pittsburgh and have just secured funding for this project from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation to provide grants to 10 schools in New York City.\n<\/p>\n
Total Project Budget: 40,000.00<\/p>\n
Other Funding
\nSources For The Project (Committed & Potential): This is the first grant I’ve started for this project.<\/p>\n
Project Duration: 12 months
\nGeographical Area Served: Citrus, Columbia, Hernando, Highlands, and Marion Counties in Florida
\nAge Group To Be Served: 5-18<\/p>\n
