The supplies you helped provide increased our ability to do more hands on math. My students loved using the comparison alligators and the magnets on the boards. The Time, Money, and Fractions booked really help with those tricky topics. They are topics that students do not have a lot of real life exposure to with things going digital. They are always hard units to teach, this book helped. \r\n\r\nStudents were super excited to see the flip clock and use the telling time task cards. I am loving the lined paper and the effect it is having on improving students writing and their spacing. So many of them started the year trying to write their words across three or four lines. This has been such a great tool.
