My Students

My students need hands-on learning tools! Rekenreks are just the right tool to help students build number sense, discover number relations through a visual model, and build automaticity of math facts.

I teach in an urban school where funding for classroom materials is limited.

80% of the students in the district qualify for free or reduced price lunch. I loop between 1st and 2nd grade and am teaching 2nd grade this year. My class consists of both general and special education students who are working hard to build a foundation in number sense. Many of my students struggle with number sense -- the ability to understand how numbers are made and the relationship between numbers. This lack of number sense causes frustration during math activities such as addition, subtraction and word problems which rely on a strong foundation in number sense and place value.

My Project

Number sense is a foundational skill in mathematics. Providing my students with Rekenreks will give them a hands-on experience and help them to develop number sense. The rekenrek will serve as a visual model that will help students discover number relationships and develop a variety of addition and subtraction strategies.

Helping my students to build a solid foundation in mathematics will set them up for success in the future.

Rekenreks will aid in their math journey and to help them understand the powerful relationships with numbers.
