My Project

Our students have so much pride and perseverance, especially when it comes to math and science. This year I would like to create a dedicated math area in the room to support small group instruction. The decorations will be used to create a warm and nurturing math area to learn in. The laminating sheets will be used to create supplemental materials that will be used daily during math instruction

The post it's will become the most valuable asset in learning.

The students will be able to take notes, and add additional information onto their homework pages such as step by step instructions with the clear post it's. In order to begin preparing them for middle school, we will be switching to the binder method and need a shelf to store them in.

Please help them accelerate their learning with these organizational tools. These materials, are all part of their hands-on learning and preparation for middle school. Support our students at this Title 1 school with a cart full of supplies they need.
