Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

In my math class, my students are learning about coordinate grids, functions, linear equations, and graphing. I need the rulers to help my student visually see how shapes and lines reflect on a coordinate grid. Also, the rulers can use it for the students to plot the function table on a coordinate grid. The chart paper is used for anchor charts to reinforce the math skills that are taught in my class. I need the grid chart paper for hands-on activities with coordinates and graphing. My students want to improve!!
