Were you a kid who struggled with math? My job is to empower students who feel anxious and unsuccessful with math. A variety of math manipulatives would provide exciting hands on learning experiences for my students. My goal is to help students feel capable and successful.
I work with K-2 students in 4 small rural schools in Maine.
My students are identified as needing additional help with math outside of their regular classroom. My students want to feel successful like their peers, but often struggle to understand a variety of math concepts.
My Project
New math manipulatives would add some wonderful excitement to the concepts my students are learning each day. Many of my students do not learn in a "traditional" way. Hands-on manipulatives would allow them to process their thinking and learning in a different/deeper way. My students are hard workers, they deserve to have outstanding resources to use each day during their math intervention time.
Donations for my request will make a BIG difference to the students I work with.
Using math manipulatives would allow K-2 students to feel excited about a subject that they struggle with daily. Math manipulatives are a great way to enhance and deepen math understanding.
