Math Station Organization
Math Station Organization
That’s an exciting title for New Year’s Eve, right??
Well, ok…not exactly, but that is pretty much where my life is right now with two toddlers.
Anyway, the last time I was at school, I thought I would take a picture of how I organize my
math stations:
The cart was actually re-purposed from holding an overhead projector (yes, I not only had one…but I still do in storage)…the boxes are cheapos from Dollar Store that are made to sit on top of each other- (but they wouldn’t have to)… the numbers are those peel and stick bulletin board letter/numbers-
easy, enough =)
I like it because I can change the tubs out easily…it rolls around in case I need to move it for convenience and they are easy to put up and take off for the kids. I have things like geo boards, dominoes, and unifix cubes in them…dice games and recording sheets…pattern blocks, shapes and pattern pages. Fact family activities were the last item I added. Each pair of kids gets a new number bin each week…I haven’t been able to do math stations every day, regular like I should…so the kids only have that bin maybe 2-3 times that week…and then they go to the next number the following week. (if that makes sense =)

I also thought I would mention some great giveaways my bloggy buddies are having:
Teeny Tiny Teacher has 1000 followers and is celebrating by giving away three $10 Amazon cards here
Mrs Wheeler is celebrating a New Year by giving away a $10 Starbucks card and a cozy pair of socks here
and Yearn To Learn is celebrating 2012 by giving away a $15 Starbucks card
Those are some AWESOME Giveaways!!
This is exactly what I need to do with my math tubs!! Thank you for sharing! I do math stations everyday and it is getting hard to keep everything organized.

Great organization! I love the number idea. It is quick and easy! I might need to rethink my math centers. I hope you have a great New Years!
Hi Jennifer!
I think you are like a little BloggyAngel! Everywhere I "click," you have left a nice little note on someone's blog.
Thanks, in particular, for the comments on my blog–that was VERY sweet, and very appreciated!
This is just like having a cross-age (kid-wise) BlogFriend!
Wishing you the best in 2012!
