Caution...Mathematical Minds At Play!

My students need math centers to keep these minds active and engaged. These new math centers will help keep little hands active while acquiring new math knowledge in a fun way.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Cavanaugh's classroom raised $218

My Students

My students are constantly on the go. They are always looking to crave their hunger of learning. I am so impressed with their willingness to learn. My students try their best with whatever we give them. I would like to be able to expose them to different types of learning to suit their needs. Each child wants to achieve their goals, it's my job to support them in meeting these goals. They are ready and waiting to soar to success!

My Project

Having math centers allows for independent and partner learning. It grows a child's confidence and depth of knowledge. These math centers will facilitate a basic need for keeping the children learning while they are playing! Math centers like Sea Horses Spin & Count to 20 Activity Center, Trucks Spin & Count to 20 Activity Center, are hands on learning opportunities that are essential in the learning process. Learning can be fun, when the students have choice time we want them to pick and gravitate towards math games. These games teach not only math...they teach social skills such as sharing, taking turns, and problem solving aspects. They make math so exciting and hands on during the classroom learning time.
