Hands on Learning for Growing Minds

Help me give my students the hands on tools they need to be successful.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Orth's classroom raised $589

This project is fully funded

My Project

My small groups are designed to help students in both Literacy and Math. The students I work with need that extra boost to be successful. Students learn quickly when they are engaged and excited. Having the hands-on manipulatives like the Lakeshore Alphabet Beads, Jumbo Dice and Magnetic Base 10 Blocks are great tools to get the students excited about learning. These hands-on tools keep their attention and will help them reach their learning targets.

We are still seeing students that are behind academically and socially due to COVID-19 and school closures.

Having these tools to boost learning will help students to reach their goals.
