This is the first year that my school is departmentalizing. I will be the 5th grade math and science teacher. This project will provide my students with a variety of resources to enhance their mathematical skills. Math can be difficult for many students, but by using these hands-on manipulatives, they can succeed! I want to help my students understand the concepts behind the mathematics, not just remember a formula or one way to solve. Many students are taught one way to solve a problem and if it doesn't work for them, they struggle to succeed. I want to show students that many math problems can be solved in a variety of ways, such as equations, diagrams, tables and charts. They will be encouraged to explore the problem to find the solution that works best for them.
