We are going to create a monthly math journal using the skills we are learning throughout the month. With these art supplies, the students will be able to create a beautiful piece of art that will allow them to be creative and have fun learning at the same time. It helps the students use hands-on counting and manipulating the paper to fit their needs. It truly is amazing to see the projects the the students come up with. I love that students are still learning, this may be the method that helps some master the skill, which would be amazing!
