Help me give my students resources for math and science. The math manipulatives will be used to help every student visualize the concept we are trying to teach. The thermometers will be used in science for climate experiments.
My students are smart, creative, and problem solvers. I feel it's important to have hands on projects as it keeps the class actively engaged and it's more interesting for the students.
My students love projects as it challenges them to think outside the box to find solutions to problems.
They are an incredible group and I'm lucky to be their teacher this year. They love any opportunity where they are able to use their problem solving skills and discuss ideas as a class.
My Project
The math manipulatives will be used to help my students better understand math concepts. We focus on place value and fractions several times in the year. The math tiles are used so that students are able to visualize place value and get a better idea of number sense. The fraction models are used so students can see how fractions can be split into smaller pieces.
The whiteboards will be used to facilitate better classroom discussions and activities.
The thermometers will be used in science to help learn about climate and the water cycle. We use these thermometers in experiments where we measure water temperature, track greenhouse gasses temperature, and visualize how heat is dispersed in a room.
