I have found over the years that my students have learned better with the proper materials. Since most of them live with extended family members and grandparents, it is difficult to come to school with school supplies. By having the materials stored for easy access, the students will have a sense of pride because the materials will theirs to use. Materials will be used during whole group and small group instruction, and as well as during centers and reviews. The proper Math materials and manipulatives will also help build confidence in my students. Many are on different levels, and these materials will target all of their individual needs and goals.
