My Students

My students are both in fourth and fifth grade. I teach them math, so we need a lot of materials. My students are extremely motivated and eager to learn. I want my students to know we all can be great at math no matter who we are. They are a multi-cultural array of students.

My Project

My project is all about MATH. My students are an amazing and multi-cultural group. I teach both 4th and 5th grade Math. We are in dire need of supplies and resources. Any one that works with students are also in the need of pencils. I added pencils with inspirational messages.

I just want my students to have the access everything that all students do.

I teach in Southside Jamaica, Queens. We have very limited resources. Your help will be extremely helpful. Thank you so much for anything that you donate!!
