Help me give my students math tools and games to help them build their fluency!

My Project

Number sense is a person's ability to understand, relate, and connect numbers. Children with strong number sense think flexibly and fluently about numbers. They can visualize and talk comfortably about numbers, take numbers apart and put them back in different ways, compute mentally, and relate numbers to real-life problems by connecting them to their everyday world.

Number sense is so important for young math learners because it promotes confidence and encourages flexible thinking.

My colleague and I just found out that we will be working together to facilitate the Math AIS program at our elementary school for grades K-6 starting this coming fall. We are thrilled and honored to help the students at our school to build their number sense and confidence with numbers. In order to do so, we would love to have some new tools and games to help the students in fun and engaging ways! All of the materials requested; the fluency games, number talk books, flashcards, 10 frame set, and dice, will engage the students with numbers in ways that will make them stretch their thinking and enjoy working with numbers. They will have fun while building their number sense. It doesn't get much better than that!

We can't wait to start working together in the fall! We hope that you will be able to support us and our students to achieve great things! Thank you for reading this project and for any support you can give!
