FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. D. LEE's classroom raised $420

My Project

We will use the floor puzzle to problem solve. Many of my students are learning to add sets of numbers and these activities will provide resources to challenge their minds. We will use the beginning of subtraction as a fun element to learning.

My students love to play games and these games will provide them a variety of learning through fun.

We also do problem solving and STEM is an excellent way to lay the foundation to math learning. We will use the games to promote independent problem solving. Our students will also use the pens to help with fine motor development. The games will be used to learn how to share and play games during free choice time and use language development. These materials will be used as a teacher instructional tool to support out creative curriculum topics. The topics we are currently using are tubes and tunnels study.
