Math Manipulatives Matter

Help me give my students a more interactive approach to math with these colorful dry erase boards, markers, cleaner, and multiplication popper boards.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Richardson's classroom raised $300

This project is fully funded

My Project

During our morning meeting and small group time, we whip out the dry erase boards to walk through math problems. Since several of my students struggled with place value and number alignment, we'd eventually put the white boards away in exchange for graph paper. Little did I know that preprinted dry erase boards existed!

These dry erase boards with preprinted boxes and place value indicators will certainly help them keep their calculations organized and increase their accuracy with place value, multiplication, and long division.

My students are also wild about colored dry erase markers, so the markers with built-in erasers are sure to be a big hit!
