Learning is fun when it's a game! Third graders in Kellie Georgio's classroom at Samish Elementary School are diving into place values with games that bring a bit of friendly competition to math time. 🧮 Games like these help students grasp the importance of understanding place values—an essential building block for everything from adding and subtracting to solving more complex problems in the future. By making math interactive and engaging, Georgio is helping students build a strong foundation that will serve them for years to come. Way to go, Samish third graders! #MathIsFun #ElementaryEducation #LearningThroughPlay #SamishElementary
