Goal
The overall purpose of this project is to provide my first year classroom with hands on math manipulatives and resources to help aid math lessons, centers, and instruction. I hope to use these manipulatives to support students in their learning to develop math skills by using these interactive math aids. My goal is to create a student-centered learning environment that meets the needs of all learners with the help of these math manipulatives.
Category
Learning Aids - Sunshine state book sets, robotics kits, puzzle boards, science models, engineering supplies, etc.
What will be done with my students
This project will provide a variety of different hands on math manipulatives that will be used to teach and guide learning in the classroom. Activities will include using bears or counters to solve addition equations, using manipulatives to act out real-world scenarios, and to encourage collaboration and discussion in the classroom. I am a strong believer that every student learns differently and by having visual aids and hands on learning manipulatives it can help me reach the needs of all of my learners.
Benefits to my students
When implementing math manipulatives and visual aids into instruction students will become more engaged and confident when solving math. Students will be able to physically explore different concepts with the help of these manipulatives.
Budget Narrative
These grant funds will be used to purchase several different math manipulatives, visual aids, and resources I can implement into math centers, lessons, and instruction. As a first year teacher these resources can help guide my instruction and build confidence, engagement, and excitement in my future math lessons.
