Calculating Academic Achievement

My students need 2 calculator kits, a pencil sharpener, and 28 compasses to succeed in math!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Zapata's classroom raised $369

This project is fully funded

My Students

Help the students in our classroom have access to quality math materials so they can thrive in an academic setting!

The students in my room are 75% free and reduced lunch recipients, and come from a variety of backgrounds.

They speak different languages at home and come to school to build their academic skills in a supportive environment so that they can fulfill their families dreams as well as their own personal dreams.

My Project

With these materials the students in my class will be able to double check their math problems, play fun games like "Beat The Calculator" (students test their multiplication skills against the calculator!) and find the square root of different numbers. Many of the math games in our class require students to check their work against a calculator, here's an opportunity to provide them to the kids in my class!

Imagine the kids in my 4th and 5th grade classroom using high quality materials to support their academic achievement in math!

These materials are a direct way to value and recognize their academic growth.
