With the use of computers, cell phones, and tablets, kids today are used to focus objects being within close view. They like bright colors and a hands-on way of learning. Why not give them what they want while learning? This light table and manipulatives will give them learning within their focus range as well as be a hands-on experience that they can use! The specific targeted group of students that will utilize these materials will be the lower-achieving students, who struggle to learn without movement and kinesthetic learning. Help us bring a little light into their learning styles with your donation!
