My Students

"Mathematics may not teach us to add love or subtract hate, but it gives us hope that every problem has a solution." -Anonymous

My students are inquisitive middle school math students that are always looking for solutions to their problems.

They live in an inner-city low-income district with a very diverse population. They face many challenges, both in and out of the classroom. Some of the students in my classes are special needs students who suffer from attention deficit disorder (ADHD), hearing impairments, and/or have other types of special needs.

It is my hope that throughout the year, I can provide them with the resources they need to face their challenges head-on and find solutions that will inspire them.

My Project

Help me provide these items that will enhance my students' digital learning as well as promote a healthy learning environment.

Our students are facing another year of uncertainty and constant change and my goal is to provide the safest and most efficient classroom environment so that my students can focus on their education without any added distractions.

The power strips and cables will help my students safely charge their Chromebooks while they are in class.

The tissues, bags and hand sanitizer will help promote a safe and healthy classroom environment.
