My Project

I teach incredible students who are curious , creative, and determined to do well in math class every day. What makes my students special is their diverse background and personality and their ability to support one another. In our class, they are not just learning math, they are learning how to think critically, solve problems, and collaborate effectively, skills that will serve them throughout their lives. The recut Tennis Balls for Chairs will help move the chairs easily and eliminate noise distraction when forming groups during collaborative activities. The dices will also be useful to create a more interactive activities. Maintaining the cleanliness is also vital to ensure a healthy and safe place for my students. The classroom materials such as pencil, colored pencil, crayons. eraser, rulers, dry erase markers are useful tools in their learning to help them more c

By equipping our classroom with the right resources, I aim to create a learning environment where every student feels empowered to participate and succeed.

My goal for this project is to provide my students with the tools they need to deepen their understanding of math concepts, engage more fully in our lessons, and develop a love for mathematics that will last a lifetime.

By supporting this project, you are helping to create a classroom where every student has the opportunity to succeed, grow, and discover the joy of learning math. Thank you for considering a donation to our project!
