My Students

My school is a small and diverse, Title I funded school on the east side of Washington. My students come from a variety of different economic backgrounds and 96% of our students receive free breakfast and free lunch every day. My students walk into my classroom every day full of life, ready to learn, and excited for the day.

My students are eager to learn and do their best; they want to be at school learning and being successful every day because kindergarten is their happy place!

My students are creative, caring, and clever. They are learning how to make friends, share, and they are building lifelong learning skills in reading, writing, math, science, and social studies as they begin their educational careers.

My Project

I am excited to allow my students to learn and reinforce the skills and concepts through reading and math games.

These math balances will be engaging for my students to reinforce addition and weight concepts!

Due to Covid, all games, toys, and puzzles have to be individual bins. I will use these for students who are fast finishers or during their dramatic playtime. These fun math hands-on educational games will help my students have fun learning addition and weight concepts

Adding and weight are in our upcoming math units and having these games to help cement my students' understanding of these concepts will be a great resource for them to use during our math workshop rotations.

My students will get three different level choices with these balances to help them during their learning. Easy, middle, and hard levels will help all of my students be successful. The fun look of the toys will make my students think they are playing, but they will be learning during their activity.

These learning resources materials come in individual packages and will sit on my bookshelves during the day waiting for students to choose one to play with for the day while allowing them to disinfect overnight.
