My Project

I teach small groups of students who struggle with mathematics. The math journals will give students an opportunity to explain how they got their answer in an organized journal.

I want students to be able to start the school year in a cool, comfortable learning environment.

The portable air conditioner will provide that comfort, along with the fridge. The students work better in a comfortable setting. The bench I am requesting is for kids to sit with a friend to share their work with, it will be called a "Buddy Bench".
