Using the math manipulatives in my cart, I will be creating math kits that parents can checkout to take home and use with their students. These kits will serve approximately 250 students and give them an opportunity to experience hands-on learning in the midst of this pandemic. Math manipulatives are expensive. While parents struggle to make ends meet, we cannot expect them to buy math supplies while students are learning from home in the pandemic. For those who might have struggled with math, you know how abstract math can be, but these manipulatives make math concepts accessible and understandable, which will increase the students' number sense and conceptual understanding. I have tried my best to pick only essential manipulatives and look for bulk quantities, which I will separate out and make into individual kits. You will notice cardstock. That is for printing and laminating important tools like hundreds charts, ten frames, and number lines for all the students. These kits will not only help these students, but also future students by making sure we use a checkout system, so families can continue to use the grade appropriate materials. Like any system, there is a high initial cost. I thank you in advance for contributing to this project and helping me set up a support system for our families.
