Mastering Math Made Easy

My students need math skills games and puzzles to help them practice the skills that they are learning with me in differentiated small groups.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Burke's classroom raised $247

This project is fully funded

My Students

Help us practice our newly learned math skills with fun and exciting puzzles and games! We need materials for quality skills practice that does not involve pencil and paper. Puzzles and games are the perfect match for this need.

I teach in a Title I school that serves a wide variety of students.

We have many students who are learning English for the first time. We serve 50% of our students free or reduced priced breakfast and lunch. I teach students who come from good families who only want the best for their kids. My students work hard to meet my high expectations and know that they have my support and the support of their families.

My Project

I teach math in a “workshop” fashion in which I work with my kids in small groups based on their needs and their strengths. While I am teaching a group, the other students are at one of three different stations. One of the stations that they go to daily is the games station. I found some wonderful puzzles and games that will make their time at this station more engaging. One of the resources that I am requesting is a set of equivalency puzzles that ask the kids to show equivalent sets in money, place value, fractions, time and operations. Another resource that we need is a set of “Who’s High? Who’s Low?” math games. The final resource that I am requesting for my kids is a set of counting money puzzles. These materials will help my kids practice the skills that we are learning in my small group. They will also help us review and remember skills that we have worked on in the past.

This project is important to us because without quality materials to use during the game station, my teaching and their practice is less effective and efficient.

We need these games and puzzles to help us continue to have quality math group sessions and independent center practice of their newly learned skills.
