Third-grade teacher Monique Jackson teaches math principles by making up raps to help students learn.
When you walk into Monique Jackson's 3rd-grade classroom at Stevens Park Elementary, you're surrounded by soft lighting, positive affirmations, and math equations.
"Tell me why y'all chose 8," Jackson asked her class pointing to a graph on the projection screen, her math symbol earring dangling as she moved."They love when I wear them!" In between solving math problems, Jackson exercises the other half of her students' brains to help them learn. Jackson makes up math raps.
"I think that it's important that we build that love at a young age," Jackson said."Because I know I struggled with math as a student.""A fraction represents a part of a whole," students rapped while dancing together. "I think the little twist that I added, like the raps, has really impacted their love and understanding for math," Jackson said.
