Adding Fun to Everyday Math

My students need math games to play independently and in small groups. These games will supplement our current math curriculum and help us practice the key skills we need to master math concepts.

My Students

My first graders are very active, inquisitive, and engaged learners. They love to problem solve, they love to socialize, and they love to be challenged. They also love to play games!

Adding fun, yet educational, math games to our classroom would be the best way to support strategic mathematical thinking.

The majority of our students come from low income households and participate in the free and reduced lunch program. They work extremely hard, daily, and they are very serious about their education. Receiving these resources will help to keep them motivated and excited about learning. It will also give them a productive outlet for their energy and let them take an active role in their learning.

My Project

The resources we are requesting consist of small group and individual games in all of the topics covered in our first grade curriculum. The easy to follow instructions allow children to work independently and not interrupt while I'm providing more guided (one-on-one) instruction to smaller groups.

The games offer various options of difficulty and interest so that EVERYONE can play and cover important concepts like measurement, counting, and geometry.

My students are always so engaged when they've got hands-on materials and they love to socialize and work together. These would be great for both! Receiving these games would give my students an opportunity to practice essential math skills while breaking away from our normal daily routine. It would ADD a little more fun into the learning we do everyday!
