This classroom project was brought to life by An Anonymous Supporter and 6 other donors.Math Game Fun!
Funded Feb 2, 2022One day, while my students were out enjoying recess, I stacked all the new boxes, materials, and books on our rug. When I brought the boys and girls back to the classroom, I told them to tip-toe into the room and sit on the outside edge of the rug, that a surprise was waiting for them. Twenty-six first graders ooohed and aaahhhhed and smiled with delight! As I introduced each new game and material, my students were more than excited.
The math games provided by our Donor's Choose campaign were helpful in practicing addition and subtraction skills. The games provided valuable reinforcement disguised as play. Many of my students who had been struggling with subtraction concepts made tremendous progress while using the games. We used the puzzle activities to practice everything from number sense to shapes to computation – all while having fun! The "Seed Collection" of books quickly became class favorites and have been requested for story time over and over again.
Thank you doesn't seem nearly enough to express the gratitude I feel for these materials. The donations truly made this school year great! These materials also provided excellent opportunities for working together, sharing, and practicing other social skills. There were so many smiles, so much laughter, and tons of happiness in our class this year – directly because of your kind donations. Thank you from all of us!”
