Help me give my students books that encourage a love for math because many students struggle to see how math can be fun or how books can make math relatable.
Math books will be an awesome and engaging way to introduce a lesson. Math can be fun and relatable, and I believe books will be a good way to show how math can apply to everyday life. Besides books, I have some basic school supplies that will also help the year run smoothly. These supplies, like colored pencils, will help students execute their math projects on paper, and Expo markers will be used to show their work on whiteboards in everyday lessons. We would greatly appreciate this opportunity! Thank you for all that you do.
