My Project

These Reading and Math tools will allow me to make my learning centers fun and engaging. They are going to help motivate and challenge my students. There are a lot of hands on materials that will allow the children to be an active part of the lesson making it fun. There are also math manipulative that will help students who are struggling have another option to connect to. The more ways they see things and different ways they try things can really broaden there mind. I think all of these materials will allow them to be connected to their learning!
