My Project

Many of my students are hard workers and enjoy participating in the activities we do together. However, they often lose focus or need some better working supplies. They need some extra supplies to help energize them.

I love using their little white boards when we play a game or do partner work, but they get annoyed that their markers are always drying out.

My students often get hungry during class or honestly need a snack just to help them focus on a tough math lecture! I've seen a few of them struggle to maintain focus on what is often a very difficult subject. These simple donations will really help them get the job done.
