Travis Brooks, a second grader, is using manipulatives to solve problems aligned with the math standard MA.2.NSO.2.1: recalling addition facts with sums up to 20 and related subtraction facts with automaticity. 19 – 9 = ___ or 9 + ____ = 19 By using tools like counters, Travis can visualize the numbers, practice different combinations, and build a solid foundation in addition and subtraction facts. This hands-on approach helps him develop speed and accuracy while making math fun and engaging! Keep up the great work, Travis!

Shark STEAM students used Lego bricks to build better communication. Students were grouped to be writers who made a small Lego build, and then wrote directions for the builders to follow. After evaluating that method of communication, they could then speak directions, but with no gestures or touching the bricks. This was deemed much better than writing and following directions! Finally, all students could build together. Everyone could talk, touch, gesture, and speak to build a figure together. Students learned how valuable clarifying questions and feedback are to understanding each other as well as having fun building bricks!
