Support Mr. Doherty's classroom with a gift that fosters learning.
I'm an 8th grade Math teacher who also has the privilege of coaching our students in Debate, Basketball & Soccer. I'm passionate about helping my students develop critical thinking and analytical skills, and helping students explore the real-world applications for the topics we cover in Grade 8 Math.
But none of that growth is possible without first connecting with our students. Key to that is a safe and nurturing environment conducive to learning, and the resources our students need to access in order to compete with other students around the country. That's where you all -- the amazing community at ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½ -- fills an integral role. My students, colleagues and I cannot thank you enough for your support.
And for those who are also interested in helping students grow and learn in Math, I cannot more highly recommend some of Jo Boaler's work on Growth Mindsets in Math. Check out her site:
