My Students

This project is for all third grade students in our building and will be reused for many years. We could have up to 23 students in each classroom.

Many students are hands-on learners and we want to provide them with the opportunity to explore and experience math with manipulatives that will help them visualize why we solve equations the way we do.

My Project

Students will each have their own math tool kit with a variety of materials inside. When they are solving different equations, they can use their tool box to pick a strategy to help them solve the problem.

Since every student learns differently, having a wide variety of manipulatives available for them to explore when they need them is a huge benefit to the math classroom.

They are able to use their problem solving skills to figure out what the answer could be. These boxes will help keep everything organized so students have access to all manipulatives at once.
