Math and Reading are Good for the Soul

My students need math and reading resources to help them be successful in math and reading!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Brigman's classroom raised $1,070

This project is fully funded

My Students

My students are from the upstate of South Carolina. They are part of a diverse school that is near the local university. The best part about my group of students is that they are able to learn about other cultures from around the world.

My students are bright, caring, and energetic!

They love to get up and move! A lot of our time is spent moving through different stations and working with different partners. This group of students are definitely leaders who will change the world some day!

My Project

My class is in need of more math and reading resources. It is sometimes a struggle as a teacher to have all of the materials that the students need in order to be successful. I am asking for math manipulatives and guided reading resources to help my students work to their highest potential.

My students work hard but there is no substitute for hands on learning in math and reading.

Having these resources will greatly help my students and future students be successful in class and in life. Please consider making a donation to help my students succeed. Thank you!
