My Project

My students are a vibrant, curious, and resilient group of learners who thrive on hands-on activities that make learning fun and engaging. They bring energy and determination to every challenge, and their diverse learning needs inspire me to provide tools that help them reach their full potential.

The "pop it" manipulatives I’m requesting will transform abstract concepts into tangible, interactive experiences, sparking excitement and curiosity in the classroom.

These tools align with research showing that play-based learning enhances cognitive development, problem-solving skills, and math understanding. For neurodivergent students, "pop its" offer sensory input and reduce cognitive load, making it easier for them to engage with lessons in a meaningful way.

My goal is to create an inclusive, play-based learning environment where every student feels excited to explore new ideas. These manipulatives will help students build confidence as they master foundational concepts, especially in math. By incorporating play into lessons, I aim to cultivate a love for learning that extends beyond the classroom and supports each student’s individual growth.

With these tools, I hope to inspire my students to see learning as an exciting adventure, where they can explore, problem-solve, and grow together.
