My Project

My students are amazing visual learners. There is a great necessity for word walls, posters and mathematic print around the classroom to constantly remind my students of what they are learning.

Great Algebra 1 and mathematic posters are very hard to come by and often very expensive.

They are however, a much needed commodity. It would be wonderful to have them.

My classroom is also very bland. I would like to brighten it up with some nice new curtains. Having a visually appealing classroom will definitley assist in captivating my students attention in class.
