Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

My geometry students need hands-on learning experiences to help them understand and visualize the math. GeoStix can help the students to see a visualize the geometry concepts.

GeoStix will help the geometry concepts make sense through the use of hands-on learning.

Geometry is a very hands-on type of math class. Once the students are able to actually see and create the geometric diagrams, then they can have a better understanding of how it all fits together. Giving the students access to hands-on materials would be a tremendous help to our class. Please help these very worthy students.
