Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

Please help my first grade students become Mathematicians! There are certain topics they really struggle to grasp at their young age.

My students need some additional supplies to help them grasp tough math concepts. Please help them learn to visualize using real life manipulatives.

We need visuals to help us learn! These math maniputatives will help students learn while they are having fun playing with the day to day tools.

We are a classroom of First Graders who need help visualizing our math concepts. Throughout our learning process we have so much fun together and we are hoping that you can help us learn to become mathematicians. I am requesting math manipulatives that include clocks, magnetic money, plastic dollars, a timer and math games to assist my students in their mathematic development. We need constant practice using math manipulatives. These manipulatives and games will help us have a real life math experiences. We cannot wait to learn how to be mathematicians this year. Please help us learn to be mathematicians by fulfilling our proposal for a math manipulatives.
