My Project

I make lots of resources to reuse every year in my classroom. I mostly make games for the students to play to understand math concepts. They enjoy getting to play and have fun while learning in the process. I use mats to help them show how many items are in a bag. Or make ten frames for them to use over and over again. Please help replenish my laminating sheets. Thanks for your continued support of teachers. We all need support to help teach our children. Thank you for looking!
