Basic Supplies Needed to Help Kindergartners with Math and Literacy
My students need snap and slide bonds for helping my students with numbers. My students also need counters to help them add and subtract numbers and they need tangran activities to help them learn shapes.
Kindergarten is such a magical time! This is a child's first experience with school, and I want my students to have what they need to succeed! My students are amazing children who strive to learn everything they possibly can. The students in my classroom are always wanting to have new opportunities and really love to explore new ideas through reading, science, math, and art. Many of my students do not have access to books, art materials, or science supplies at home.
Our school is located in a very high-need community where many families do not have the ability to provide their children with the basic supplies or innovative materials we use each day to keep learning engaging and fun!
My classroom is filled with energetic learners who come to school each and every day ready to learn! There are like little sponges, eager to learn, and soak up everything that is taught to them.
My Project
In math my kindergarten students need tangrans and tangran cards to help them learn their shapes and colors. By using the tangran cards the students will have to match the colored tangrans to the pictures and count the tangrans. Withe this activity we are learning colors, shapes and counting.
My students need manipulatives that will help them with their basic math skills such as: counting, adding and subtracting.
The pony beads as well as colored chips will greatly help with the counting, categorizing, making patterns and adding and subtracting.
My students will also need journals for their sights words, phonemic lessons and for writing. These journals will also help them keep organized and they can use them as a tool to look back and reflect upon their work.
