My Project

This year in 6th grade math, my students will begin by taking off on an exciting journey to travel the world while mastering math standards. As we explore math through global destinations and real-world problem-solving, we need some essential supplies and snacks to keep our journey smooth and successful. I am asking for donations of classroom supplies and healthy snacks to help my students stay focused, energized, and ready to learn. Items like pencils, dry erase markers and boards, folders, erasable pens, and nutritious snacks go a long way in keeping our math travelers on the right path. With your help, we can make this school year a high-flying success where every student feels supported, engaged, and excited to learn.
