Manipulatives to Expand Math Minds

Help me give my students the opportunity to hone their math skills with unique and hands-on experiences. My classroom is virtually empty of any math manipulatives. I reach out to you for help to expand our supplies.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students

Located along the Kootenai River and nestled among three mountain ranges sits a little country school full of the most amazing students in the world. We have high needs and a transient population but our students are cheery, welcoming and eager.

I'm the teacher but I learn from my students every day what it means to persevere and succeed through trials.

I work with students with learning disabilities and special needs. My hope is to support and guide them through their few years in elementary and prepare them for the joy of learning they will experience for the rest of their lives.

My Project

My special education students don't learn in conventional ways and I find most of my teaching preparations tend toward creative and unique ways of presenting math concepts. I spent the last year scouring thrift stores and storage closets to find all I could for my new classroom. I got lucky a few times but in the end I need help filling a need.

Research has proven that the use of math manipulatives can help students connect abstract ideas inherit in math.

My students are exceptional at working hard and persevering in the mist of their trials. I want to help them get passed their learning disabilities and learn and love the subject of math. Each item listed will benefit students with high needs and quench their desire to learn.
