My Project

When you enter my classroom you will see my students full of excitement for learning. They will be busy working with their center work putting puzzles together to learn CVC words, final 'e' words, reading as well as writing.

These math puzzles will help to increase my students' addition and money skills.

Regrouping is not an easy skill to learn, so I want my students to have as much hands-on practice as they can. To help build life-long skills they must also learn how to add money, so being able to recognize and add various coins and bills is important as well.
