Math Manipulative Kits

Help me give my students materials to help make our class run more smoothly. We will use mesh bags for math manipulatives & center activities. We will use the dry erase spots for small group time.

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

This project is fully funded

My Students

I teach 25 brilliant young scholars who come from a variety of different backgrounds and socioeconomic statues. Approximately 50% of the students at my school qualify for free/reduced lunch. My school is a Title I school. We celebrate our differences and use them to learn about each other and grow as learners.

In our class, we refer to ourselves as a classroom family.

Being kind, tiny humans is our #1 goal in 1st grade. We believe in having a growth mindset!

My Project

Students will be able to have their very own math manipulative kits! Each student will get their own mesh zipper pouch with their own unifix cubes, dice, counters, etc.

I am also wanting to maximize our small group time!

Reading and math center activities will be reorganized and put into addition mesh zipper pouches. Also, our small group table will use the dry erase dots. Small group time is SO important and these materials will help revamp our small groups.

I will also be reorganizing school supplies using the small totes with lids.
