Check Out Our Games!
The Math Lending Library was recommended by the School-Based Coordinated Program Council’s math committee as a way for children to practice and improve basic math skills.Addition, subtraction, multiplication and division skills are critical on their own and as a foundation for higher math, science and other areas of study. Mastering these skills often takes practice and repetition. Games, music and books give students a great opportunity to have fun while practicing the math they have learned in school.
Where is the Math Lending Library?
Main school building, down the hall from the office.
