My Project

I coach kids daily on leadership in Mathematics that leads to better ways to prep for their college and careers. Opening doors to math is the best way to prepare them with life skills that will lead to success. This happens daily in our math class as we talk about careers and their future leadership skills.

I use a currency in my classroom that they can use to purchase other options to learn financial literacy skills as well.

My kids seemed to do better when I had items available. They use Fitzhugh bucks that they earn for academic excellence to purchase much-loved treats as well. My students are all preparing to be college and career ready. They are tackling financial leadership skills so they can be ready for the real world. This is where it starts! I try to help lead my students to bags in life skills that will help them prepare for any college or career path they choose. The little 3D animals constantly need refreshed in my class store! My kids love to purchase them with our Fitzhugh economy! The Cornell notebooks help me coach them in taking useful notes for their learning of math. The cabinet keeps everything safe. The decoration items are for our student council to take leadership roles and decorate our social events. This not only helps them with leadership, but also helps them dabble in different career options as they continue into high school. All of these skills in and out of the classroom help them grow as citizens.
