Each morning, my K–2 special education students look forward to our calendar routine. We use the chart daily to count on, identify the days of the week, and track how many days we've been in school to make groups of tens. This interactive part of our morning meeting has helped my students strengthen their number sense while also practicing important language and social skills.\r\n\r\nThe students were so excited when they first saw the new materials! They eagerly take turns moving the pieces on the chart and love sharing about upcoming birthdays or special events in the month. Our math fluency tools have also become a favorite—students are building confidence and accuracy as we progress monitor their addition and subtraction facts each week. The journals give them a meaningful space to show their learning through writing and drawing, reinforcing literacy and math goals together.\r\n\r\nThese resources have made our lessons more engaging and hands-on, and I can already see the difference in my students' enthusiasm and participation.
