The math manipulatives helped students strengthen number sense, counting, problem-solving, and conceptual understanding by allowing them to physically model mathematical ideas. Students were more engaged and confident when working with math concepts because they could see and touch their learning. In addition, the use of magnetic tiles supported growth in phonics skills. Students used the tiles to build letters, form words, and practice sound recognition, which increased their phonemic awareness and letter–sound correspondence. Overall, student engagement increased, and learning became more meaningful and accessible for a wide range of learners.\r\n\r\nBecause of the materials provided, I was able to offer more differentiated and student-centered instruction. The manipulatives allowed me to meet diverse learning needs, support hands-on exploration, and reinforce concepts across subject areas. I was able to integrate play-based learning, encourage collaboration, and provide immediate feedback as students demonstrated their understanding. These materials also made it easier to assess student progress informally and adjust instruction as needed. Ultimately, the resources enhanced my ability to create an engaging learning environment that supported both math and literacy growth.","fullyFundedDate":1758403886011,"projectUrl":"project/bright-stars/9665228/","projectTitle":"Bright Stars","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Simmons","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-4_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10233007"},{"teacherId":3530244,"projectId":9926557,"letterContent":"Thank you so very much for funding this project.
