Math Manipulatives for Special Learners

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Kearney (Struckel)'s classroom raised $536

This project is fully funded

My Students

My students and I love our school! All of my students receive free breakfast and lunch at school. All of the students that I see are on Individualized Assessment Plans because they have been diagnosed with a disability. My job is to help them succeed in their classrooms despite their disabilities

My students are incredible!

They are hard workers, curious, inquisitive, and most of all - hands on! They love seeing why answers are what they are in math class. They take pride in being successful mathematicians and I am hoping to help them find this success with these awesome math manipulatives. All of my students are on Individualized Education Plans, receive free breakfast and lunch, and come from high poverty areas. They are brilliant mathematicians that learn differently than their peers. I take pride in creating learning opportunities that build on their strengths, address their weaknesses, and help them feel successful in school!

My Project

Students will be engaged in differentiated and tailored math lessons when using these materials. My students will be excited to use new materials to help them with their math! My students learn differently than their peers and it's my job to help get them learn based on their learning style and learning needs. These materials will help bridge the gap between them and their non special education peers. These materials will also help me create fun and exciting math centers that will be both skill specific to what each student needs to work on and engaging to all learning styles!

Donations to this project will improve my classroom.

These materials will help me create more innovative and exciting math lessons that are differentiated specific to the needs of my students. Students will be more engaged in lessons and as a result will learn more. I also think these materials will help students retain the math content they are expected to master each year.
