My Students

I have a group of energetic 7th graders who are excited about learning new things. I enjoy teaching them math and connecting everything they learn to the real world. I have a group of diverse students from varying backgrounds. We all continue to learn from each other every day.

My Project

As we celebrate Black History month, students will get the opportunity to learn about Black mathematicians and the impact they had on our world. As students grow and learn in math class, I provide them with opportunities to learn math concepts and learn about math as a whole. I teach students how to make real-world connections with what they learn in class. Additionally, it is essential for students to learn about the Black Mathematicians as they celebrate Black History Month. Students will also be working on a project o highlight some of the top Black Mathematicians and how they impact the world.
