My Project

I am a teacher working in inner city, Cleveland area and I selected books and math manipulatives in this Donors Choose project! I plan to use the selected materials by bringing books into the classroom for a variety of reading levels, and math manipulatives so students can practice solving fluency facts. It is important that students have access to books in their classrooms, and students learn a variety of ways to help solve math problems. With your help, I can make this happen! We can do this together! Thank you so much for your help!
