Mrs. Begley from Shallotte NC is requesting books through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Math Puns Are a SINE of a Big Problem!

Help me give my students engaging, authentic, and relevant texts that integrate literacy and math with Scholastic Math and new headphones.

My Project

Math teaches new ways of thinking. When learning a new language, reading and writing can be challenging.

It is even more difficult to learn other subject areas such as math when you don't understand the vocabulary.

These magazines will help make learning math more engaging, but they will also provide real-world examples and aid in their learning of their language.

This subscription also provides digital materials such as videos, visuals, and lessons. I hope it will inspire them to think like scientists and engineers with resources that celebrate diversity in STEM fields. The headphones will also be useful for the digital learning videos and the read-aloud option for the articles that are included in the subscription.
