Middle School Math is Fun!

Help me give my students a safe, fun place to learn and grow! Math is hardly a student’s favorite subject and I’m here to change that!

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

I am so excited for year five and my 3rd year at MPVA! I do my best to make math fun! We use our notebooks every day so colored paper is our way to stay organized and make it fun! I also host students for lunch in my room so having a clean space for us to eat and warm up food would be amazing! Thank you for all your support! I will be the department chair this year as well as teaching a new group of hyper-accelerated math students! These are superstar math students on a hyper-accelerated math track! Thank you for your help to make math fun!
