Mathematicians in the Making!

Help me give my students these meaningful materials to enhance our math center!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Raspardo's classroom raised $536

My Project

Please help me enhance our classroom's math center. Our pre-k students have center time daily. One of our centers is the math center. These answer boards, paddles and other math materials will help provide my students with even more choices within that center. We are always working on number recognition, counting, number writing, etc. These materials will enable my students to work on all of these skills. We have our very own cash register and the play money will help my students learn about the concept of money and the face value and denominations of those monies. We would greatly appreciate these materials!
