My Project

Calculators are very important to mathematical computation and will be useful for students who do not already have one. Colored pencils and markers will be useful for creative minds and taking better notes (especially in Geometric constructions and figures). Colored paper helps with both Geometry units and for group work when students are rotating between different groups (sorted by color).

My goal for the project is for students to become more creative thinkers and more organized mathematicians!

There are a large number of students who are so scared of mathematical computation and I hope that with the right tutelage, they will become more confident and successful.

Grades 9-12
