Activate Student Learning with Math Supply Starter Kits

Help me give my students a math supply starter kit to guarantee that everyone is ready to learn when classes begin.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Herrington's classroom raised $1,375

My Project

Next school year, I’ll be joining a new school where students align their academic experiences with career-focused pathways. I’m excited about guiding my math students as they connect classroom concepts to real-world applications while exploring their future goals. To ensure they begin the year ready to engage, I’m seeking support to provide each student with a math supply starter kit.

The math supply starter kit is an essential set of tools to help every student stay organized and actively participate in math class on a daily basis.

Each starter kit will include a composition notebook for monitoring their progress, note-taking, and problem-solving practice. Students will also receive a pencil pouch filled with practical supplies like scissors, rulers, glue sticks, and highlighters to help them create interactive notebook pages that reinforce mathematical understanding. The pencil pouches also make it easy for students to bring materials between home and school to minimize falling behind due to a lack of basic supplies.

Additionally, each kit will include a dry erase board, marker, and eraser. These tools will support collaboration and communication in the classroom when students share ideas, solve problem-solving tasks, and receive immediate feedback.

By eliminating the barrier of missing materials, these kits ensure that every student is fully equipped to explore, construct, and connect mathematical ideas from day one. With your help, we can activate student learning by giving every learner the tools they need to succeed in math and beyond. Will you help us start the year strong?
