Math with Our Hands!

Help me give my students the opportunity to learn Math through hands on learning and working with maniplulatives.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Cecil's classroom raised $882

This project is fully funded

My Project

The materials I am requesting will help give the hands-on learning experience as well as the independence in learning at their own speed! Through research, we have found that there are three types of learners-auditory, visual, and kinesthetic. These materials will be a HUGE addition to learning centers, where we will be able to work in small groups or one-on-one to create a more focused learning experience.

By having multiple sets of items, we are able to keep our learning groups small.

This allows the staff to focus on individual needs through fun, learning games! Math is a foundational subject where we want all of our students to excel!
