Color Brings Math Alive

Help me give my students the supplies they need to succeed in my classroom. Students come to class unprepared without a pencil or pen. I always encourage students to highlight and use color to make things stand out.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students

My students come from across the five boroughs of NYC. They come to our school to major in Fashion, Art, or Merchandising. They bring a portfolio of their work in order to be accepted.

My favorite thing is to watch them light up when they understand Algebra.

In my classroom I provide them ways to solve in different ways. I let them explore. I give them creative assignments and allow them to be as creative as they want. This is where I really get to see some of the special talent they truly hold.

My Project

I encourage my students always to add color to their notes. Highlighting what I say is important to remember. I am the queen of foldables. I love making little learning books to help the students remember information. The post it notes will be used this year to help them make their notes come alive.

All the materials I requested will be used in the 5 classes I teach.

Students will 100% benefit from the supplies I am asking for. Many students come to school not prepared and I want them to have the same opportunity as everyone else.
