Interactive Math and STEM Manipulatives

Help me give my students hands on Math manipulatives and engaging STEM items.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Kirtley's classroom raised $244

This project is fully funded

My Students

I work at a Title I school where over 50% of the students receive free/reduced lunch. The students I have this year have experienced a substantial amount of adversity.

I appreciate and admire how my students are resilient and persist through adversity.

They teach me how to be a better human each day and give me hope for the future of our society.

My Project

I work at a Title I school, and my classroom is lacking in hands-on math/STEM manipulatives. I never received manipulatives to accompany the curriculum because the kit was lost in the mail. I encourage my students to use inquiry-based learning, where they experiment and learn through discovery. Having manipulatives (such as dice, sand timers, pattern blocks, etc.) helps students to visually observe their learning. These tools are also helpful when I am facilitating small group time and creating math centers. My students and I would greatly benefit from these items.
