My Project

COVID-19 has handicapped our students in a way that they were having to teach themselves. There are many gaps left to fill, in mathematics and financial literacy that I am hoping to fill. I am hoping to provide hands-on activities that I have created with the requested supplies to help the students understand and retain information that they have not yet received or have lost due to the pandemic. The bulletin board will be used to reinforce a current skill by visually illustrating those concepts with an informative board. These created activities will benefit students not only for this year, but for many, many years to come. Thank you.
