English is Important, but Mathematics is more Importanter
My students need three subject spiral notebooks to be successful & organized Mathematicians!
FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Figueroa's classroom raised $352
This project is fully funded
Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Students
If anyone was to ask me which grade is the best to teach, I would say 7th grade. Why? They are just so simply awesome. At that age, they have so much curiosity about the world that it helps trigger amazing conversations inside and outside of the classroom.
From Brooklyn, New York, I have the privilege of working with the best of the best in the city!
My math students are ready for any challenge, but most importantly, can integrate mathematics into a rich and well-rounded standards-based program with an emphasis in Arts and Sciences.
My Project
Three subject notebooks are perfect for mathematics! My students will have their separate math classwork notebook, however, I aspire for my students to use the three subject notebook for different parts of class. This means they will need both books at all times during class.
The three sections will be separated into homework, state exam questions/practice, and the final section will be vocabulary.
This notebook will be available for the student at all times to help them study along with their classwork notebook. Having a separate place for homework, practice problems, and vocabulary make it efficient for students to study with all supplements in one location.
More than half of students from low‑income households
