Math Photographs

Using manipulatives is an important part of learning mathematics.  As a student teacher, I used manipulatives to make sure my students understood the mathematical concepts in the concrete stage of learning before moving them to the more abstract stages of learning.  Some of the manipulatives that I used included Base Ten Blocks, Unifix Cubes, and counters.  The children were better able to grasp these concepts by first using manipulatives.
