Help Me Make Math More Engaging!

Help me give my students tools to help them be successful in doing math on whiteboards, group work, and learn to think about math differently this year.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Smith's classroom raised $496

This project is fully funded

My Project

My district adopted a new math curriculum that approaches teaching math differently. Students will be doing a lot of work vertically on WipeBoards provided by the district in small groups. This means I will need lots of markers to facilitate doing math vertically, daily. This is the reason for needing the Expo markers and erasers.

There are also other supplies that the curriculum calls for to enhance and engage the students in learning and thinking about math.

Those additional supplies include colored pencils, markers, protractors, patty paper, and graph paper. These items will greatly enhance the lessons and help the students be able to engage more fully.
