My Project

The printer ink and tracing paper will provide my students with the tools needed to engage in hands-on activities that bring abstract geometric concepts to life. By physically manipulating shapes, they’ll better understand translations, rotations, and reflections, which will deepen their comprehension and retention of these important concepts.

My goal is to create an interactive and engaging learning environment where students can explore and understand geometric transformations.

By giving them the resources to visualize and experiment with these concepts, I aim to boost their confidence and interest in math while reinforcing key skills.

My students are curious and eager learners who thrive with hands-on experiences. Many come from diverse backgrounds and face challenges, but they consistently demonstrate resilience and a desire to learn. Providing them with the tools they need helps them unlock their potential and succeed in math.
