Supplies Needed to Grow Successful Students

Help me give my students the tools needed for a creative and successful school year in Math!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Alana's classroom raised $652

This project is fully funded

My Project

My objective is to empower and engage by optimizing different learning strategies. Utilizing hands-on math activities and listening outlets like the power pen, assist different learning styles as well as engage students. Optimizing supplies such as laminators and paper cutters make math activities, flashcards, and games, easier, more efficient, and more durable. Supplies such as markers, scissors, and pocket folders keep students engaged, allow for more creative opportunities, and reduce waste.

Students strongly benefit from flexible seating as it rejuvenates and refreshes their minds.

Clipboards allow seating to be flexible around the room and the school, allowing for a change in pace and environment. Organizational tools are implemented to obtain a productive and clean learning environment, thus achieving a clearer mind. Other tools such as the pencil sharpener help eliminate wasted time and minimize distractions so that learning is the number 1 priority.

I appreciate all your help in ensuring these students get the best education and opportunity possible!
