My Project

Our students are excited to get some hands on activities to add to their math class. So we have put together a list:

Laminating sheets preserve their works of art; Modeling clay to create geometric designs; Chakra bowl for regulation and thoughtfulness; Bright paper and pencils for art; Manipulative toys for reinforcing reasoning and mathematical skills; and Building toys for demonstrating little engineering skills!

My students come from many different cultures and we study Chinese and math together. We love to explore other cultures and to think through math from multiple angles. These toys and supplies would add to this process!
