Exploring Mathematical Concepts in Kindergarten

My Students

I have the pleasure of learning alongside 18 enthusiastic, energetic, caring and curious kindergarten children who care about each other and the world. We connect using Twitter and Kidblog. We engage with these platforms so we can have conversations and learn from others globally.

Our school is a fun and safe place to learn.

Kindergarten is a wonderful place to learn because we ask questions, make friends and explore what we are curious about. Learning is lots of fun in Kindergarten.

My Project

This project will help my students become more confident with their ability to understand the mathematical ideas of less, more, and equal too. The balance will help my students create ways of exploring balance and ideas around weight. This includes understanding big ideas of heavy and light.

The seesaws will offer my students opportunities to explore mathematical concepts through an hands on approach when exploring measurement and weight concepts that I teach in kindergarten.

Both of these tools offer endless ways for my amazing, mathematicians to become strong problem solvers who persevere and collaborate with other learners when thinking mathematically.
