My Project

My students are hard working and want to do well in math. They enjoy using manipulatives.

Having these manipulatives for me to teach with and for them to use will support their understanding of hard concepts.

For example, the coins will support my students understanding of money in Kindergarten, First and Second Grades. The base ten discs will support 2nd graders when it's time for borrowing when subtracting. The addition & subtraction pages will support my First Graders with answering equations .

These items will help my students this year and in the years to come.
