My Project

I am looking to grow my young mathematicians through hands-on learning. Math manipulatives and games make learning fun! I want my students to grow academically and increase their confidence.

Help me give my students math manipulatives and games to increase their understanding of math concepts while having fun.

The use of math manipulatives in the classroom aides in the understanding of math concepts. Manipulatives make learning more concrete because the students can see what is being explained. Many students rely on the support of manipulatives to help answer questions especially in K-2. Math manipulatives help students gain confidence while doing their work.

This will help all students see the math and physically engage with the activities. The manipulatives will be used for math games, whole group instruction, small group instruction, as well as, and one-to-one instruction. The math manipulatives will provide students with hands-on learning.
