My Project

Hands-on math activities have several benefits! They make learning more enjoyable, help with understanding concepts, and improve problem solving skills. Plus, they are a great way to engage and interact with math in a practical and meaningful way. We will be using the art supplies to help us create math volume animals as we are learning about finding volume in our geometry unit. Hands-on learning is a great way to engage and understand concepts better. It is more interactive and fun! This is an awesome way to engage my entire class.
