My Project

Our hearts break a bit when students utter the phrase, "I'm not a math person." There is no such thing as a "math person!" Students may only believe math involves flashcards, timed tests, and irrelevant problems to solve. Time to change! Let's engage students by using fun, exciting, real-world ways to understand math.

By providing students the materials through this project, math will no longer be boring and lacking connections, but meaningful and FUN!

These hands-on manipulatives provide a better understanding about equal groups, multiplication, and problem solving. Compared to traditional math tools, these supplies will reduce math anxiety and help learners become better problem solvers.
