Math/STEM Interactive Notebook

Help me give my students an interactive notebook they will be able to utilize throughout all math courses. This will be a resource when preparing for ACT. Previous students used this when sharpening skills for college math courses.

My Project

When I first learned of an interactive notebook I was not sold right away but then I saw results. I saw results in engagement, deeper understanding of topics, and undeniable academic growth! Growth that impressed and inspired students. I sought out information and ideas on how to create an even more powerful interactive book students could carry into future courses and benefit from it. Over the course of many years I have crafted a version of an I reactive notebook that my students love. Many students have come back to me and thanked me for helping them make an interactive notebook. Student have used these interactive notebooks as a resource and reference through out their entire high school career and even in some college courses. They have relied on them heavily when studying for college entrance exams and again when reviewing the basics needed in engineering math courses and other STEM related fields. Due to the proven growth shown in school report cards and the student engagement with these interactive notebooks, I want to continue to bring them to students at my new school. This is an unheard of thing for my students and when I showed them mine they begged to make one. By funding this project many students will get to make one and amaze themselves with how well they can do mathematics related fields!
