Starting Strong with Manipulatives: Hands-On Standards

(K-2)

Participants in this session will explore how to build strong student understanding through the
use of manipulatives and how to transition students to more abstract thinking. Each easy to
follow Hands-On Standard lesson progresses students through the Concrete-Representation-
Abstract (CRA) approach which encourages deeper understanding with less reteaching. Come
see ways to promote student success with hand2mind!
