Recently, they used base ten blocks and place value disks to build numbers and show different ways to represent them. It is helpful to be able to differentiate learning by some students manipulating numbers within 100 and other going to 1,000. It was exciting to watch them make connections between the hands-on materials, written numbers, and their own problem-solving strategies. These tools have helped make their mathematical thinking visible and have encouraged students to explain their ideas to one another.\r\n\r\nThe students were thrilled when they first saw all of the new materials! They were immediately eager to explore the games and puzzles and could not wait to begin building with the linking cubes and base ten blocks. Their excitement has carried into our lessons, and the materials have helped students feel more comfortable taking risks, trying new strategies, and learning from mistakes.\r\n\r\nOur next step is to continue strengthening students' number sense and place-value understanding. Students will use the manipulatives to compare numbers, compose and decompose numbers, and develop strategies for addition and subtraction. We will also continue using the games and puzzles to build logic, reasoning, and perseverance. Thank you for helping us create a classroom where every student can feel confident, capable, and courageous as a mathematician!","fullyFundedDate":1778061996999,"projectUrl":"project/helping-students-become-confident-mathem/10243400/","projectTitle":"Helping Students Become Confident Mathematicians","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Hinderman","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp2425622_orig.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1777567973582","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/2425622"},{"teacherId":2518170,"projectId":10270355,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generous donation to my second grade classroom!

They are constantly begging me to have time to read, because we have so many great books that they are eager to read. Thank you for making that happen.\r\n\r\nWe have really been working on building up our reading stamina and having books of high interest definitely helps with this.
