I'll admit, reading is more of a passion for me, because it came easier to me. Math... well, that wasn't the case. In fact, it wasn't until I starting teaching when I realized that I LOVE MATH! It is incredible way to demonstrate not just your knowledge, but also your understanding in a myriad of ways.
Kindergarten math is the foundation of building math skills and reasoning that is needed for continual growth in future grades. It kind of puts the pressure on me (yikes!) to support students in understanding and loving math. It is important for them to know the foundations, because math is like a set of stairs: you need one to advance to the other. Even more to consider is the fact that each student is different in their abilities and understanding. There is no "one size fits all" way to teach math to 24 different students. Here is why I wanted to write this blog: to help you understand that you are already supporting your child in their math! So instead of saying how much I love math, here are some ways you and your children and love math (and become better at it), too!
There are so many ways to incorporate math into daily routines, but we all know how progressive and quick technology is in providing math resources that are helpful (and appropriate) for students! Here is a quick list of websites/apps to support math at home:
Apps for Math
While there is a lot here, don't get overwhelmed! These are simply a list of resources for you to look at and use to support math fluency and understanding. If there is something you have at home that works for your children, comment below and I will add it to the list! Thanks, Miss M. :)
