How to Successfully Integrate Tactile Learning into Your Classroom
December 18, 2024
Below is our interview with Tracy Sforza – a third grade teacher at Camp Avenue Elementary School in North Merrick Union Free School District, located in North Merrick, NY.
I have been teaching at Camp Avenue for 19 years. I have taught first and third grade.
I was introduced to Math & Movement by my principal.
I have been using the program for about two years.
I have seen a lot of growth in the children’s fact recall. The kids love to get up and move around, and it gives them a meaningful movement break throughout the day.
My favorite mats are the Skip Counting mats for multiplication. The multiplication unit in 3rd grade is very important. If the kids can master their facts, they will be able to conquer many other units (e.g. division and fractions) with ease. It will also lay the groundwork for future grades.
I try every day in my classroom to keep my students engaged and excited to learn. The math mats bring a fun and creative way to get your students moving, motivated, and excited about math.
I use the mats throughout my lessons and also as a meaningful movement break when my students need to get up and let out some energy.
