My Project

The history of manipulatives for teaching mathematics extends at least two hundred years. My students will benefit from having meaningful hands-on experiences with math tools.

They provide kids with a visual of numbers and give children experiences working with numbers.

They aren’t simply just memorizing numbers or counting without meaning. It shows kids the value of numbers.

Ten frames help kids with composing and decomposing numbers. It’s also great for teaching addition and subtraction.

"In order to develop every student’s mathematical proficiency, leaders and teachers must systematically integrate the use of concrete and virtual manipulatives into classroom instruction at all grade levels.” (NCSM, 2013)]
