The resources from this project have made such a big impact in my class. We use the resources every day! I use them when teaching small group, kiddos use them collaboratively in centers, and some are used to enhance independent practice! Students are able to work hands-on with the materials and explain their thinking more confidently all while having fun with the learning games. I watched students collaborate, problem solve, and stay engaged longer than usual because they were excited about what they were using. When my students first saw the materials, their reactions were priceless! I heard gasps and \"wows\" as I showed them each one. They couldn't wait to dig right in and try them all out! These resources have been a big help in increasing engagement, comprehension vocabulary skills, and math addition and subtraction fluency. We will continue building skills, practicing independently, and applying what we learn in new ways across all genres.
