My Project

It is scientifically proven that when students work collaboratively and grapple with tasks they tend to achieve higher test scores and perform well above their peers. The resources that I am requesting, chart paper and markers, will support our group work, enable students to illustrate their thinking, and have resources that allow scholars to utilize resources to successfully achieve the target.

My goals for this project are to increase student collaboration that leads to proficient performance on multistep tasks.

What makes my scholars specials is their tenacity and drive. Math is a subject that tends to cause anxiety and has a negative correlation between texts and scholars. My students come to math class and wants to try new things, they love to illustrate their thinking especially when their diversity is welcomed.
