Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
I love my students excitement when it comes to learning new things. In math, new concepts can be abstract so having manipulatives are crucial for kindergarten students because they make abstract concepts concrete and understandable.
Using hands-on tools helps young learners explore numbers, shapes, and patterns actively, boosting engagement and curiosity.
Manipulatives develop fine motor skills and encourage problem-solving through play. They support diverse learning styles, making math accessible and fun.
Early positive experiences with manipulatives build a strong foundation for future math success by fostering confidence and critical thinking. Overall, manipulatives transform math into an interactive, meaningful experience that nurtures lifelong learning habits.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
