My Project

Math centers are a part of each day in our kindergarten classroom! Students use math games and activities to better their growing mathematics skills. In order for students to remain engaged in these centers, and to help them stay interested, these centers need to consistently change. This takes resources!

This project is about giving my students various math center options that are constantly changing and growing their mathematic skills!

I know that the wooden pattern blocks, three bear counters dry erase number line and other resources in this project are going to be fun, engaging, and well loved during our math centers.

Celebrate Black teachers and kids! This project supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of students are Black.
