By physically interacting with math concepts, students develop stronger mathematical reasoning and problem-solving skills while gaining confidence in their abilities. \r\n\r\nGames like Connect 4 and Jenga have become powerful learning tools in our classroom. These games promote critical thinking, strategic planning and perseverance while aligning with Nevada Academic Content Standards that emphasize mathematical practices, communication and reasoning. They also foster peer interaction, turn-taking, and respectful competition, helping students build positive relationships and strong classroom community. \r\n\r\nTogether, these resources have helped create a dynamic and engaging learning environment where students feel motivated, supported and excited to learn.

The day the Legos arrived, my class kept asking me when we would get to use the Legos. I didn't make them wait long since they were so excited.

When we finished the book, several of my students asked if they could take the book home and read it again during Winter Break. Of course I let them. I was so happy that they enjoyed it and wanted to read it again on their own. As we read it together in class, it was so fun to hear them laugh at all the crazy things Fudge did. They agreed with Peter on almost everything, and they could all relate to his feelings. This book really brought reading to life for them.

On Thursday and Friday, they used a variety of beads to make a snowman, a Christmas tree, and a wreath ornament. My class was so excited everyday to find out what they were going to make.

The life skills picture books have been a tremendous help in teaching my students to think about their choices and reflect on how their choices affect them and those around them. For the last 30 days, my student wrote in their \"Bucketfilling Journal. \" This journal has been an integral part of helping them be mindful of their words and actions. Each day, they reflected on how they helped someone and how someone helped them. Then they wrote a paragraph or two about their experience. Knowing that they had to reflect and report on their day reminded my students to positively interact and get along with others.
