Math Comes Alive through Hands-on STEM Activities

Help me give my students STEM-based math manipulatives to make place value, fractions and geometry come alive through the use of manipulatives to support a strong foundational knowledge for all students.

This project is fully funded

My Project

To enhance our STEM-based math instruction and boost student achievement, we are seeking magnetic math manipulatives that are visually engaging and easy to organize. These manipulatives will help students see how math concepts fit together, making abstract ideas concrete and easier to understand.

Magnetic pieces are ideal because they stay in place on whiteboards or magnetic boards, reducing loss and keeping materials tidy.

By illuminating the visual component of math learning—such as place value, fractions, geometry, and number relationships—these tools will support a hands-on, interactive approach proven to increase math scores.

We are looking for sets that include items like magnetic base ten blocks, fraction pieces, number lines, geometric shapes, and counters. These resources will be invaluable in creating dynamic STEM lessons that engage all learners.
