Class Description: This class is an extension of the math students are working on at home and designed to deepen understanding of key concepts using manipulatives, movement, songs, and games!

Throughout the year, we will be focusing on various mathematical concepts and understanding the importance of math in our daily lives. Concepts will include telling time, counting money, addition, subtraction, shapes, measurement and reading graphs.

Each week will consist of learning a new topic and a hands-on activity to follow. I look forward to exploring these concepts together while having fun!
