Our Learning Never Stops

Help me give my students learning games to reinforce math concepts and skills in an enjoyable, motivating manner.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Lotz's classroom raised $744

My Project

As a math focus teacher, I get to work with students in grades 1-5. I also teach the advanced math in grades 4 and 5. The students are eager to learn. We have working lunches, and many prefer to come in for recess for challenges. I also work in an afterschool program at my school to reinforce math skills. The math learning games that I included on my wish list will be used so my students can practice math skills and concepts while working together and challenging each other while playing the games. The students who come in for lunch bunches and recess can choose from a variety of age appropriate games to further their development and knowledge of math skills. The games will also be used as a reward for positive class behavior and acts demonstrating citizenship. Thank you for taking the time to read about the benefits of the items on my wish list. Also, thank you for considering to help fund these items so my students can continue to learn and and improve their math skills through games.
