My Project

My first-grade students learn best when having fun, working collaboratively with peers, and engaging in hands-on learning. I would love to purchase dry-erase whiteboards, transparent plastic spinners, and two-color counter chips for our classroom math center.

Math center activities enable the students to review targeted math strategies and skills taught within the classroom.

We could also use a tabletop easel and chair pockets. A tabletop whiteboard easel will allow me to record my student's thinking and show them how to solve a math problem step by step. The chair pockets will help keep my students organized and allow them to find their school supplies easily. Thank you for considering my project.
