Math manipulatives allow students to interact with math in ways where they can actively participate in the learning process, discover new concepts, and deepen their understanding of old concepts. I am requesting a variety of math manipulatives including TI Nspire calculators, algebra tiles, geometric solids, tracing paper, and scissors to help my students better understand. TI Nspire calculators are wonderful tools in the classroom that enable students to explore a wide range of math concepts. Students can explore geometric topics such as parallel lines cut by a transversal and their unique angle relationships, fraction addition with virtual pattern blocks, percent increase and decrease, and so much more! Although I have a set of TI Nspire calculators for my classroom, as my class sizes continue to grow, it becomes increasingly difficult to ensure there are enough calculators for each student, so I have requested 3 additional calculators to keep up with the increase in class sizes. Geometric solids are a great way to teach surface area, volume, and cross-sections of solids. This is a concept I have struggled to teach in the past and these manipulatives will make a huge difference as students will be able to touch the solids, fill them with liquids, take apart the nets, etc. Tracing paper is a required tool when teaching geometric transformations and patty paper is a perfectly sized, affordable option for tracing paper. Origami paper will be used in conjunction with the scissors for foldable activities such as surface area and nets of 3D figures. Double-sided whiteboards that include an xy-coordinate grid are a great way to keep students engaged while practicing solving equations and graphing functions.
