Multisensory Learning to Engage students

Help me give my students a multisensory approach to capture the excitement of learning for kinesthetic, auditory, and visual learners.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Nakashima's classroom raised $713

This project is fully funded

My Project

Help me to engage my students through multisensory resources such as white boards, Unifix cubes, and other math manipulatives. These materials help grab and maintain students’ attention while learning through all subjects, especially language arts and mathematics.

The use of Unifix cubes and white boards will help me to differentiate for my students and the many multiple intelligences we have in class.

It will give them a safe space of learning which allows for total participation amongst all students. They will become engaged, while I am able to collect informal data to help drive my instruction to boost student success.
