Math is hard for most second graders. It is even harder when you learn math in a second language. However, a variety of math manipulatives can help students understand the concept when the math is taught in Chinese. We are using a math online learning program called ST Math that requires headphones. The program provides a variety of tasks that help students review math. However, I do not have any headphones in my classroom. Privacy Shields are used for preventing students from seeing each other when doing the test. I often see the same "wrong" answers from students' test papers. By using Folding Geometric Shapes, my students can know what a flat shape is when a 3D model is expanded. Double-sided Magnetic Money can help students know the details of each money and know-how to exchange the money. The concepts above are both included in the Utah Math Standards. Any other magnet number lines, cubes, and dice are all for students to acquire a better number sense and do math activities. For example. the dice can be used to practice comparing numbers and the cube can have well-below students get a concrete image of numbers in their numbers. We do practice together every day both in Math and Chinese (Chinese characters), whiteboard and markers can be used for that, which is a way to check students' understanding for teachers. In a rural school, there are not many math learning resources for students to do hands-on activities instead of doing a pile of worksheets. What I hope is that students can get enough manipulatives to get the idea and "touch up" materials to learn in the doing.
