My Project

The 8th graders will be working on their organizational skills. To support this initiative, the classroom needs organizational tools such as a cart and laminator to streamline the project, preserve materials, and reduce waste.

- Cart: The cart will serve as a mobile hub for project materials, ensuring easy access to tools like rulers, graph paper, calculators, and data sheets.

This enhances collaboration and keeps students focused on the task rather than searching for materials.

- Laminator: The laminator allows reusable materials to be created, such as task cards, graph templates, and instruction sheets. By laminating frequently used items, we can reduce paper waste and foster a sustainable mindset among students while supporting differentiated learning.

This project will help students develop real-world math skills. Students will apply concepts like statistics, graphing, and proportions to analyze sustainability data.

These tools will enhance collaboration and organization within the classroom. The requested items will foster an organized, efficient learning environment, allowing students to work together seamlessly and stay engaged.

Our students are a diverse group of creative problem-solvers who thrive when given hands-on, meaningful learning opportunities. They bring unique perspectives to the classroom, drawing from their cultural backgrounds and personal experiences. Their enthusiasm for tackling real-world challenges is inspiring, and they excel in collaborative settings where their voices are valued. This project will not only deepen their understanding of math concepts but also empower them to make a positive impact in their community.
