My Students

I have a lively, wonderful class of kindergarteners who love to explore and build. This year we are really delving into the common core math standards and I would love to give them hands on experience with manipulative's. One of the standards is to take simple shapes and compose larger shapes.

My students attend a suburban public elementary school.

We are a small distinguished school that strives to stay in the group of top 10 schools in our district. My kiddos are excited to learn and come to school wanting to know what games we are going to use each day.

My Project

My students will use the magnatiles to explore shapes and see how they can make new shapes. This is one of the common core standards and I find when the students have something tangible to hold and look at, it is easier for them to tie all the pieces together. With this manipulative they can look at basic shapes such as triangles, squares and rectangles and make them into trapezoids, rhombuses and hexagons. They can also explore making 3 dimensional figures.

This project will help give my students a better understanding of geometry and how fun it is to make and build using manipulative's while learning their properties.

I think they will have a better math vocabulary and geometry sense.
