My Project

I love motivating students to be organized and prepared to learn. My student are determine to learn and grow educationally. Through the past years, I have noticed students are lacking the basic educational materials such as binders and folders.

I wanted to create a project that would help my students be prepared for all of their classes by providing them with binders, dividers, and folders.

I teach mathematics. This project will also provide students with dry erase boards and erasers to practice solving mathematical objectives. For example, when students work out problems on notebook paper they fear making mistakes. However, when they make a mistake on the whiteboard it is easy to see, erase and fix it.
