My Project

By the time students get to high school, it's a common myth that math classes are the worst 1 hour in each student's schedule. I try to make my classes as engaging as possible by incorporating hands-on activities and allowing the students to express their creativity through mathematics.

I love having art projects to show that math can be found in many places, but it's tough when I don't have any colored pencils.

Therefore, I try to assign projects where I can provide all necessary materials (if need be). Having a class set of colored pencils that all of my students can use will be incredibly beneficial to my classes!
