Funded Jan 13, 2023With your generous donations, the wish became true with the purchase of an "All Things Algebra 2" curriculum with an activity bundle curriculum. With these amazing bundles, I was able to enrich the learning environment with exciting activities and support my students with their learning needs with visual mathematics notes and mathematics videos with accessible captions. Typically, my students would show up to the classroom dreading to learn new math lessons. But as of right now with bundles, they seem to be more exciting as everyday looks differently with activity provided along with visual notes/homeworks.
With the bundle, I was also able to support my students in the classroom and/or virtually. The bundles made everything possible for all students digitally due to mathematics videos and breakdown instructions in notes included.
Once again, thank you for making a difference in my Deaf Education classroom. Without your generous support and donation, nothing would have been possible. At one step at a time, we can change the world.”
