Creative Little Explorers

Help me give my students multiplication flash cards to help them with multiplication facts. I like when they have enough sharpened pencils so time is not wasted sharpening pencils.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Elementary School's classroom raised $287

This project is fully funded

My Project

My students are having difficulties remembering their multiplication facts so the multiplication cards will assist them to do better with multiplication. The little crowns I want them to wear for student of the week. To help motivate them to always try to do their best.

My goal for this project is to help students exceed or reach their expectations in Math and Science with these resources.My students are special because they are loving and kind to me.

I am a proud teacher of my wonderful students. They deserve the best.
