My Project

Our class is a tapestry of diverse backgrounds, talents, and dreams. We're on a mission to create an engaging and enriching learning experience for each and every one of our gifted students.

In our dynamic classroom, we believe in the power of hands-on, project-based learning to unlock the full potential of our young mathematicians.

However, we face a challenge which is limited access to essential resources that would enhance our math curriculum and provide enriching experiences for our students.

That's where you come in! With your generous support through DonorsChoose, we aim to equip our classroom with the tools and materials needed to take our math lessons to the next level.

We're dreaming of art supplies. Creativity knows no bounds in our classroom and we believe that incorporating art into our math lessons can make abstract concepts come to life! With a variety of art supplies, from colorful markers to construction paper and beyond, our students will have the opportunity to visually represent mathematical ideas, engage in hands-on activities, and unleash their imaginations.

Learning should be fun, and what better way to reinforce math skills than through interactive games? We're seeking educational games that are not only engaging, but are also aligned with our curriculum objectives. From counting and number recognition, to addition, subtraction, and beyond, these games will make learning math a thrilling adventure for our eager learners.
