Having access to fraction towers, place value blocks, and the other manipulatives will not only help to engage students who learn best by hands-on activities but help to make math concepts more visual for students to understand. Having these manipulatives will help students grasp concepts that I will be teaching them in the first half of the year (used for teaching place value, centers, and fractions)! Having a set of these that are enough for small group/ whole group would be great because the current manipulatives at my school are very limited. Fractions have always been an area that my former third graders struggled with. I had access to four fraction tower kits at my old school and saw how they made comparing fractions easier for my students. My only regret is that I was not able to provide each student with a set. I'm hoping to get 13 to start off with and hopefully get more later on. Having these in my classroom will be great for students to have access to all year round without having to worry that the math lab does not have the manipulatives available.
