Math Is Cool!

Help me give my students games, floor sweeper and items to decorate the classroom.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Deaton's classroom raised $290

My Project

I am thinking of ways for my students to take more ownership and leadership roles in their classroom. The requested floor sweeper will be used by students who are the captains for the week. They will take turns sweeping the classroom, allowing them to learn leadership roles in the classroom. The diffuser and shirts will be used to make the classroom feel more inviting. The shirts will be hung and also used to inspire students who might struggle in math, as well as, pump them up for learning. The mini fridge will be used to stock water bottles for students to earn while out at P.E., and those who might need one for snack break time. They will have access to it throughout the school day. Thank you for supporting our students!
