Math Centers with my Math Masters

Alysha and Chris work with tanagrams to make pictures.

Sarah is "setting the table" with her tanagrams,

Zoish and Christina race to match the number of spiders to the number on the card.

This group is busy working on filling in the hundred's chart.

Ana and Trey work on their math match up puzzles.

Kristy is using cubes to make the addition problem 10 + 10. Her cute puppy is there to help her if she needs it :)

Alexa makes 12 because 6+6=12. I love how she already has them lined up in an array. Little does she know that she is ahead of the game!!
