My Project

Math in my classroom will be a hands-on, paper-based experience. My students will be solving problems, drawing graphs, and building their skills without relying their on screens. But to avoid the sea of crumpled worksheets at the bottom off backpacks, they need the right tools.

I want to give every student the tools they'll need to keep their work organized, their thoughts clear, and their confidence high.

I’m requesting binders, folders to go in their binders for those random non-hole punched papers, and plenty of scratch graph paper. These supplies will allow students to keep track of notes, practice work, and assignments all year long. Additionally, a heavy-duty 3-hole punch will allow me to prepare resources quickly for the entire class.

With these materials, my students will develop not only their math abilities, but also valuable organization skills that will serve them in every subject. Your support will put essential tools in their hands and set them up for success all year long.
