Math teachers everywhere know that not every student can just "sit and get." Balancing equations and understanding math with 3D objects can be tough for the adolescent brain. Having something to hold and move can make all the difference. My rudimentary coat hangar balance and Popsicle stick models have made a difference, but are limited. I believe better tools will allow me to help more students master these difficult concepts. Your donation will help my students understand things that have frustrated them for far too long. My kids are eager to learn, and with your help I will be better able to help them. Thank you!
