My Project

I have high school students who come to school everyday and give it their all. They are an absolute joy to teach. They have the drive to learn about such abstract content taught in Algebra 2. Having the necessary materials such as pencils and paper will be greatly appreciated. These materials will continue to enhance the print-rich classroom that I strive to create. My classroom is a place that my students really enjoy! Every student folder has their math and is treated with love and care, and they are thankful for the opportunities to learn algebra. Students will be able to choose pencil and loose leaf paper, which will help them continue to enjoy independent math assignments .
