FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Bowman's classroom raised $1,092

This project is fully funded

My Project

This is my 5th year teaching math at a Title 1 school, teaching 3 different levels of math. I am so excited to show students how math is used everyday in real life and does not have to be scary or hard. I love doing fun activities, hands-on lessons, and lots of teamwork assignments. My main goal is to make all my kids feel welcome and wanted in the classroom, and that if they didn't like or excel in math previously that this year can be different. I am also requesting the candy/snacks to reward the kids while they are working hard. All the materials on my wish list will help create the classroom of my dreams! Thank you.
