Introducation

Hello everyone, welcome to my page. My name is Daniel Danso. I recently just graduated from Broward College. I am currently a math teacher at Park-North Elementary School. I would like to start by saying i have an amazing students. I believe education is really important. Students need to learn and be active participants. I try my best to make my classroom a fun learning environment. I usually have my students work on all types of fun learning activities. Such as, math bingo, make a paper plate clock, guess the weight and pizza fractions.
