Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Math manipulatives are powerful tools that can significantly enhance the learning experience for exceptional students in mathematics. These concrete objects help bridge the gap between abstract concepts and tangible understanding, making math more accessible and engaging for students with diverse learning needs.

Benefits of Math Manipulatives for Exceptional Learners

• Math manipulatives can make a substantial difference in the learning of exceptional students by:

• Providing a hands-on approach that allows students to physically interact with mathematical concepts.

• Helping students visualize abstract ideas, which is particularly beneficial for those who struggle with conceptual understanding.

• Enhancing engagement and motivation, making math lessons more enjoyable and less intimidating.

• Supporting the development of problem-solving skills and critical thinking.

• Accommodating different learning styles, especially for visual and kinesthetic learners.

Help me support my K/1 Bridge class with these much needed math tools.
