My Project

Help provide my students with a variety of hands-on manipulatives that they can use in math throughout the school year. It is important for students to have concrete materials to help make connections to the mathematical concepts.

I would like for each one of my students (the investigators) to have their own math toolbox, accessible whenever they need it!

The materials that are being asked for will promote concrete visuals that will correlate to the South Carolina 3rd Grade Math Standards. These materials will help all the way from adding and subtracting three-digit numbers to plotting fractions on a number line!
