content area taught in class. simple instructions show parents how math
skills are taught.

explains how the curriculum works and what parents can do at home. A
different page also shows each students' strengths and weaknesses. Manipulatives
[back
to top] The Moving with Mathฎ program is based on learning with
manipulatives, so having access to manipulatives is essential to instruction.
As Jean Piaget notes, We remember 10% of what we hear,
30% of what we see, and 90% of what we do.
Games and activities with manipulatives make learning fun.
Students become involved in math and stay alert.
Problem Solving skills improve as students connect manipulatives to real-life
situations.
Exploration and practice with manipulatives engage students in an interactive
learning environment.
Scripted activities in the Teacher Guide make it easy to teach with
manipulatives.
