My Project

These school supplies can help my students engage with learning and promote their thinking. Many of my students are unable to afford some of these basic school supplies and need them to be successful in mathematics.

These basic school supplies will help promote collaboration, deeper reasoning of difficult concepts, showcase student work and enhance overall learning.

With these new supplies, my students can take ownership of their learning and be proud of what they accomplish.

Some of the supplies that students will use each day in class, include pencils and pens. The paper will also be used to showcase their work around the classroom and the school.
