I work at a Title I school, and my classroom is lacking in hands-on math/STEM manipulatives. I never received manipulatives to accompany the curriculum because the kit was lost in the mail. I encourage my students to use inquiry-based learning, where they experiment and learn through discovery. Having manipulatives (such as dice, sand timers, pattern blocks, etc.) helps students to visually observe their learning. These tools are also helpful when I am facilitating small group time and creating math centers. My students and I would greatly benefit from these items.
