Math - About - Me!

This project integrates math, writing, reading, art, social studies, and technology. The children are learning that math is relevant and useful in our daily living.

We began with a brainstorming session to share ways people use math every day.  Next, we talked about specific ways children use math. Finally, we discussed how numbers can be very personal and special for each of us. 

Please be patient while the images load.   It's worth the wait - they are wonderful!
