This grant would provide Math supplies that will be utilized throughout the entire year. The materials will provide important hands-on learning that will encourage a deeper understanding of concepts such factor families and visuals for multiplying and dividing decimals. This opportunity to investigate on their own using manipulatives provides an opportunity that cannot be presented in any other way, verbal or written. Even though they are fifth graders, a visual model of the new concepts is a must! Many of these new concepts are very difficult to grasp without hands on activities. Also, my kids love to work and sit on the floor around the classroom. The wobble seats would provide a comfortable way for them to learn. The wobble seats also help ease classwork and test anxiety, and some of my kids experience that daily. I believe these Math manipulatives would not only provide a better understanding for fractions and decimals but give them a new way to learn the concepts that are tested on STAAR. I also believe the wobble seats would provide a more engaging environment while learning. They will help ease anxiety and help my kids focus.
