Student Independence

Help me give my students Chromebook adapters, whiteboards, markers, and easel pads for support in math concepts and executive functioning opportunities.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Volpe's classroom raised $292

My Project

I want my students to succeed. Sometimes they feel defeated before they even start an assignment. I want geometry to be more concrete and attainable. I want them to feel better about math, geometry specifically. Students will be practicing math problems individually on white boards. They need to draw the lines, angles, triangles to picture them rather than just watching the teacher do it. Chart paper and markers are for visual reminders to be displayed to build independence. The chargers are needed because my students’ Chromebooks are not always charged for class when they need them!
