Math Garden

Being a former math teacher I wanted to create something similar to the Word Garden that could be used for math. While small rocks had worked well with the Word Garden, I just happened to have some birch trees that needed pruning, and though a different medium might be helpful to differentiate the sets at a glance. 

The math garden includes numbers and symbols that allow students to explore math equations. Students can create their own equations or create them for a partner to solve. I included some small twigs that can be used to create fractions.

Many students are tactile learners, myself included, and learn best through their sense of touch. Having natural objects to manipulate can make learning more meaningful as well as more fun.
