Help Mrs. Soltani

I am a teacher for the deaf teaching spoken language to students in grades K-12. One of the main subjects I teach my students is the language of math and how this language applies to the concepts of math. When I became a teacher I originally thought that I would be teaching "language" i.e. English in the traditional sense. However, I soon found out that "language" comes in many forms, including math. My students often have trouble with the language of math. Many of my students are language delayed due to late identification or lack of second hand information. Language, even the language of math, is learned through repetition, and as my students are deaf, multiple repetitions of the same concepts are needed in order for the language and the math concept make sense to the student. Young children respond well to a variety of playful presentations and I would like a the Math Game Kit Level 1 Board Game Bundle to practice math language and concepts that have been taught to my Kindergarten-Second Grade students. My students work very hard to "catch up" with their peers, and adding a bit of fun just encourages them to work even harder. Please consider my request for your donation and thank you for all that you do for my students
