My Project

These basic classroom supplies will help support my classroom in various ways. The clipboards will help students work around the room while the pencil holders will support their whiteboard work. The stem building and art supplies will help students apply the math concepts to hands-on activities.

It is known that students do not learn passively, and when they are engaged, they are learning.

These hands-on supplies will encourage positively and engagement. They will help my students engage with math and experience the concepts as opposed to sitting and listening to me lecture.
