My Project

Since we have been back in person I have really tried to increase my students' engagement, especially in math. I have discovered many gaps and misunderstandings that need additional support. My students are filling in those gaps with these types of hands-on math resources. A lot can be done with these math manipulatives. I have been spending so much time trying to find items from multiple teachers so that my students can experience our learning in a meaningful way. It has been amazing to see the growth my students have made and will hopefully continue to make with these resources.
