After a crazy year of being virtual in 2020-21, students are going to need to get back to the basics of learning. Having hands-on manipulatives will be great when teaching in small groups or for different stations. Many students learn differently, so giving the option of using different resources will allow students to learn to the best of their ability and help them get a deeper understanding of the concepts. If a student is struggling to understand, it will be great to be able to visually show them using these resources.
