To make upcoming math units more engaging, my students would love a lighted math table. Learning with a math table is a fun way to simplify harder math tasks. Having it illuminated brings math to life. My students will be able to notice subtle details that are presented on the lighted surface which they otherwise would have not been able to see.
In first grade they are learning so much more than the basic mathematical functions. We have been learning addition, subtraction, numbers and number sense, measurement, patterns, shapes, money, telling time, classifying, estimating and learning about cause and effect. Manipulatives and mathematics go hand in hand, having this lighted table will make these normal manipulatives stand out. Bring them to life and help my students REALLY see them. Three dimensional shapes will become larger, money will shine, even regular paper will become something new. Mathematics can be a challenging area for some students and I want to see all my students be successful in everything they do.
The opportunities are endless for me and my students with the use of this tool. This lighted table helps students with their physical vision, as well as hand eye coordination. Literacy, Science, Music and Art are other important areas I would be able to incorporate the light table and bring all their education to life!
