Math Manipulatives for 1st Grade Mathematicians

Help me give my students tools to use during our math learning block. The math racks are the most frequently used tool for 1st graders to add and subtract with. They are durable and can withstand many uses.

My Project

My students love learning math strategies and being experts in addition and subtraction. These durable number racks and ten frames are essential math tools that will support my 1st graders as they learn a variety of strategies to add and subtract within 20.

They can each be marvelous mathematicians with these math manipulatives.

They can experience fun, hands-on, and engaging activities. These math manipulatives will support foundational skills that lead to more advanced math skills as students continue to grow and learn. I am hopeful that these math manipulatives will foster a love of learning and a curiosity in math.
