Battista Middle School Math Classroom

Help me give my students the tools they need to be successful math students.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Battista's classroom raised $984

This project is fully funded

My Project

My goal for this project is to give my students the calculators, pencils, notebooks, chart paper, snacks, and other tools they need to be successful learners and have fun while doing it. Being interactive in my teaching is essential to keep students engaged and have fun while doing it. I use white boards regularly with my students because they have fun doing it and are learning the essential skills they need to be successful at the same time. Teaching middle schoolers, I am always asked if I have food so being able to have snacks for my students is a huge plus because it makes sure I know they won't be hungry. It is also important to add decorations to your classroom so the students feel welcomed, which is why I requested the borders for my bulletin boards.
