Project Title: Vertical Non-Permanent surfaces
Teachers: Katie Lagergren and Amanda Meyer
School: Alexandria Area High School
Students Impacted: 1,000 students 9th-12th grade
Amount Funded: $6,000
AAHS Mathematics classrooms will receive Vertical Non-Permanent surfaces to “build thinking classrooms”. This teaching strategy takes student’s mathematics learning from passive to active. When students are at vertical surfaces, they are more likely to take risks, be engaged with the thinking, and form a strong conceptual understanding of the mathematics they are using.
