Class Experience

US Grade Preschool - Kindergarten
In this ongoing math class, students will complete a different hands on math activity or project each week. We will discuss a mathematical concept and then complete an activity based on that concept.  This class will be very interactive. The students will participate in both structured learning and some socializing as well. At the beginning of each class, students will have an opportunity to share any math they did throughout the week! Materials needed for each class may include printable, household items, or ones easily ordered. A materials list will be provided one week in advance. While a different math concept will be covered each week, every lesson is a stand alone lesson and therefore students can join at anytime! This class is a great option for preschoolers who are prepping to enter Kindergarten next year!
