Our school is a small K-8 public school with a focus on both mathematics and music. We are the only school in our district that puts a heavy emphasis on mathematics, where it becomes cross-curricular. I teach mathematics and science to our entire 8th grade population. My students are a special and inquisitive group who constantly push my thinking in order to bring rigorous and relevant material to my classroom on a daily basis. With the wide range of learning styles in one room, the need for hands-on materials is paramount.
