I have two classes that are comprised of all girls, and they are a lovely set of young ladies, but they don't have a passion for math. We are an urban school that has great potential. Our student body is 99% African American, with 98% of our students classified as economically disadvantaged.
I am focusing on my female classes. Oftentimes my girls feel they do not do as well in math as they would like and complain that mMath is their least favorite subject. I am searching for ways to make math enjoyable, and take away that stigma that girls aren't good in math.
