Help me give my students the geometric supplies that are needed to be successful in the classroom. Each student’s kit will contain a ruler, a protractor, a compass, colored pencils, glue and the bag to hold it all.

A chain reaction of support starts with one share.
Being in southern MS, we are still feeling the effects of Hurricane Katrina. Our area was devastated by it. Many of my students and their families lost everything. Fast forward to now; we are dealing with COVID-19. As a teacher in a low-socioeconomic school, I see that my students are constantly faced with challenges both in and out of the classroom. When my students walk into my classroom, I do not want them to worry about whether or not they will have the supplies and if the supplies are virus free. So it is important I have supplies in our room that they do not share. About 70% of our students receive free or reduced lunch, and it is the only meal some of them get each day. Some of my students cannot afford the food they need to feed their growing bodies, and I can’t afford to supply all of their needs for school supplies to help them be successful and enjoy learning in Geometry. This is where you can make a difference in our future.
Most of my students have a desire to learn and love learning; they want to excel in their education.
My Project
With COVID-19, the future is uncertain. However, what is certain is the sharing of supplies is no longer something we can do. If each child has their own pack, they will not have to worry about someone else making them ill. This is just one more thing I can do to help them stay healthy.
These tools will help me bring their learning to life.
Most students excel at hands on learning. Great students are created when they do not only remember a theorem, but when they can demonstrate the theorem by using their “tool packs.”
Thank you in advance for believing in and supporting public education. You are appreciated!
