Ms. Smith's 8th Grade Math & Algebra 1 Class

The Description

As I am heading into my second year of teaching in the Mississippi Delta, I desperately need to refresh my classroom supplies. Last year, my 7th graders showed incredible growth on their state test, and I am excited to have them again as 8th graders this year! These funds will provide necessary instructional tools for my students to ensure they receive the absolute best math education I can give them! 

To get the year started off right, I will use the funds that I raise to purchase the supplies needed to welcome my students to a classroom that is clean and stocked full with materials. This will allow me to provide the required supplies to students that otherwise would not have them. I will also purchase copy paper to ensure that I can provide my students with high quality learning materials, whether that is exit tickets, independent activities, or homework. Thank you so much in advance for supporting me and my students as I continue this exciting journey.

PledgeCents allows me to keep whatever I raise, so anything you can contribute really will make a difference for my second year. I want to make a great impression and a lasting impact on my second group of students and letting them know that they have a community that supports them both near and far will definitely get us on the right track. Here is a complete list of the materials that your generous investment will help provide for the students of my classroom:

Tiggly offers physical manipulatives that interact with literacy, math, and creative thinking learning apps for students. This provides students with opportunity to engage in digital learning through developmentally appropriate technology. The Tiggly Thinker Kit combines one set of Tiggly Words and one set of Tiggly Digits.

Anything helps- I will purchase supplies with whatever funds I am able to raise!

About the Creator

I am excited to be a part of the TFA family and join the movement to solve education inequity in this country and provide all students with a quality education. I'm fortunate enough to be selected from a nationwide talent applicant pool to join a teacher corps comprised of leaders who commit a minimum of two years to teach in high need public schools. This summer I will be participating in an intensive skill and knowledge development program aiming to increase student achievement as well as a comprehensive professional development program including seminars, discussion groups, workshops, and content and professional learning communities specific to teaching license areas. I can't wait for my first year with Teach for America.
