Mission:
The mission of the Everyday Math and Ready Math Kindergarten Center
Development is to create a comprehensive plan for kindergarten math stations that
will be easily utilized by kindergarten teachers. The stations will encompass the six
main aspects of kindergarten math, and will provide opportunities for students to
learn visually, aurally, and kinesthetically. Teachers will have the ability to evaluate
through observation and checklists.


Center Goals:
Students will enjoy math through authentic, hands-on practice.
Students will master kindergarten math goals through practice at math
centers.
Students will meet each of the center objectives (noted in Curriculum
Content)

Format:
The Center Development will be presented as both a Weebly website and a
manual that will incorporate materials, instructions, and pictures of created centers.

materials are visual for students with hearing impairments. Centers can also be
minimized, so the task is smaller and more manageable. For additional
accommodations, the learning support teacher will be contacted for suggestions.
