My Project

My students are fun-loving and eager to learn. Most times, my students struggle with engaging with the lesson but, with these supplies, my students will be able to be fully hands-on with their learning and become one with the lesson. Teachers pay teachers has been a huge help with differentiating lessons for all of my scholars on various levels. With that gift card, I can continue to reach all of my scholars. The math manipulatives promote a hands-on learning environment and help scholars grow academically. The inflatable money cube will be the incentive to motivate and engage scholars in being accountable for their behavior and their academics.

With your help, I will be able to provide my students with materials and supplies that will make math come alive and Make Math Meaningful.
