Math Manipulatives + Effective Instruction = Fantastic Fluency in Math

Help me give my students math manipulatives to have a strong number sense and math fluency.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Strube's classroom raised $378

This project is fully funded

My Project

Assist Mr. Strube's Superstars increase their math fluency by helping to add math manipulatives.

In Mr. Strube's class all scholars are S.T.A.R.S.!

Students that are really special is our mantra in class, but we need to add to our math manipulatives for a more successful understanding of the building blocks of math to be the best math scholars that we can be.

The products that I have selected will help my students by giving them additional math manipulative options to make more effective learning choices.

I have seen how choice can positively affect my students work and demeanor and hope that the additional options will help us grow even more!
