Why Pocket Chart Math? I introduce my preschool children to pocket chart math out of necessity of finding a way to simply yet affectively introduce my young learners to early math skills. I needed to find a way that would be quick and keep my little learners attention and I also needed to incorporate a hands on way for them to practice the new skill. As I started using the pocket chart math in my class I found that the children where taking their new found knowledge and incorporating it into their play during center time. This was an ah ha moment for me. It showed me that I needed to be more attentional about how I introduced my little learners to math. That is why I created pocket chart math. What is Pocket Chart Math?
