Hands on Manipulatives!

Help me give my students a virtual learning experience by using an easel with hands-on manipulatives to help students become fluent readers and math geniuses.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Askew's classroom raised $500

This project is fully funded

My Students

I teach in a Title 1 school that offers 100% free breakfast and lunch. I teach 3rd grade and my students come from low income households and they need additional assistance with instruction. My students have the biggest hearts and need extra love and motivation to succeed. They have positive attitudes and school is their safe haven. My students are in need of materials that will keep them motivated and keep a desire for learning. My students need engaging lessons and materials that will help their learning process.

My Project

My students need materials to help keep them focused on the skills to help them become successful students. Visual hands-on manipulatives so that students can comprehend phonic sounds and Math skills. Once students see the bright colors they can differentiate between consonant and vowel sounds, fraction circles and place value. Each of the manipulatives are brightly colored and are easy to use and see while looking at the computer screen. Students can use colors to guide them while reading and working on Math skills. These materials will help us virtually make learning fun.
