Changing Math Classroom Culture...
“I hate math.”
“I’m just not good at math.”
Wouldn’t you like to be able to change this conversation in your classroom?
One of the most rewarding parts of successful ST Math implementation is seeing students’ confidence grow profoundly. ST Math helps reinforce a growth mindset as opposed to a fixed mindset when approaching new math concepts. Students are able to visualize their predictions for problems, test those predictions, receive feedback, and analyze that information to refine their thinking around the content. The entire process is done at the individual student’s pace, and thus further enhances the personalized learning experience.
We’ve always known when visiting classrooms and talking to students and teachers that ST Math promotes social-emotional skills and problem-solving abilities. ST Math changes how students feel about math and now, there’s research to prove it! A recent randomized control trial found students who play ST Math have higher math self-beliefs than non-ST Math students – and the effect is highest for the lowest performers.
The other culture worth making note of is JiJi Culture! What exactly is JiJi culture? It’s a celebration of math love in the classroom (in-person or online), at home, and beyond!
Our penguin mascot, JiJi, remains a constant throughout the entire student journey no matter the grade level. Students are able to build a relationship with JiJi in more places than just gameplay – and JiJi is always by their side, no matter where they are learning or what challenges they face. Both teachers and families alike are able to pull from a variety of instructional resources and JiJi branded celebratory resources as well!
