FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Joseph M. Valentino's classroom raised $272
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 Project
The goal of this project is to help my 7th and 8th grade resource students access their math curriculum.
Currently, their math units focus on equations and expressions which require a lot of multi-step problems math functions.
The calculators will help Facilite the strategy of the students solving these equations. As a resource teacher I work with students with multiple disabilities and need help to work with STEM related activities and MATH AND SCIENCE. I will use these calculators to help with testing and daily classroom assignments. My students mean the world to me and I hope to improve their education.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
