About the store
Hi! I'm Lauren Chiavari, an educator with 16 years of classroom experience. I hold a BA in Elementary Education and am certified to teach Math for grades 5–9, with endorsements in ESOL and Gifted Education. Teaching has been my heart and my calling, and I love creating resources that make learning engaging, meaningful, and fun for students.
Outside of the classroom, I’m happily married and a proud mama to three wonderful kids, ages 14, 6, and 1, who keep life full of laughter and adventure. Our family wouldn’t be complete without our sweetest pup, Basil, who ensures we never run out of snuggles (or doggie hair to clean up!).
I created this store to share resources I've created for myself that I think will help teachers save time and bring joy to learning like they've done my classroom.

CIRCULAR CITY: A Circumference Enrichment Challenge
Turn your classroom into a design studio where students use circumference to plan a park, make decisions, and justify their reasoning like real mathematicians. This is not a worksheet. This is problem-solving, creativity, and critical thinking wrapped into one meaningful task. 💡 What Students Will Do: ✔ Calculate circumference using radius and diameter ✔ Work backwards from circumference to find missing measurements ✔ Apply math to real-world design challenges ✔ Make decisions based on their ca

Enrichment - Finding AreaPerimeter of Polygons in the Coordinate Plane
In this activity, students use ordered pairs to calculate area and perimeter. Students determine side lengths by finding the distance between points, and apply formulas to solve. Working across all four quadrants reinforces integer operations, spatial reasoning, and precision, while strengthening the connection between algebra and geometry. Skills Addressed Include: Determining a points location on the coordinate plane Finding distance between points on the coordinate plane Calculating perimete

Enrichment - Area of a Triangle
This resource helps students build a strong understanding of area of triangles through real-world problem solving. Students will: Apply the triangle area formula Solve multi-step word problems involving area Work with units of measurement (square feet) Use division to interpret area in context Analyze how changing base or height affects area Apply percent increase to geometric figures Explain mathematical reasoning using equations and words This activity is ideal for reinforcing conceptual unde

Decomposing Polygons to Find Area – Enrichment Task (Add & Subtract Strategy)
Take area beyond the basics with this high-engagement enrichment activity that challenges students to think flexibly about complex polygons by decomposing them in multiple ways. In this task, students analyze composite polygons and determine the total area using two different strategies: ✔ decomposing into familiar shapes and adding the areas ✔ enclosing the figure and subtracting the missing parts This approach strengthens conceptual understanding, promotes mathematical discourse, and gives s
