Mission Mrs. Perez: Organization & Focus

Help me give my students the opportunity to succeed independently through organization and focus!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Perez's classroom raised $453

My Project

After teaching my students for half the school year, the two most important skills they lack are organization and focus. While teaching them the math skills they need to succeed is my number one priority as a math teacher, it is also my duty as a teacher of theirs to teach them other skills to succeed.

Organization and focus will help them become successful adults.

Organization is important for them to learn in order to make their they complete all their assignments and learn to time manage. Having planners will allow them to keep track of their HW, projects and tests.

Focus in the classroom is imperative. Students must learn to work independently without distraction. Headphones will allow students to listen to quiet music and complete independent assignments without the need to interact with others.
