My Project

I have some great, eighth graders who are eager to learn. At the moment, we are currently studying geometry, but we are lacking basic materials to help students understand the math. I plan to use the materials to help them with their geometry skills. Graph paper and rulers are an essential need so that they can measure accurately. The headphones will also be essential to learning because it allows the teacher to work in small groups, while other students work on their own.

These students would love having these materials because it would give them much more success in the math journey.

I can already see how these materials can be applied to their understanding by doing it physically.
