It was somewhat by accident that I started incorporating manipulatives into my children's math lessons—at least to the extent that I do. I can remember my son's Kindergarten workbook having punch out manipulatives in the back, but it was when I came across Rosamond Welchman-Tischler's Start with Manipulatives binder that I realized what an important role manipulatives could play in helping my kids learn. Not only because they offer hands-on learning experiences, but because they can make learning fun.

Here's a fun craft that makes learning fractions as easy as...well...pie!  You only need a few supplies, and it's fun for kids of all ages. A great fall activity!

We like to incorporate geography into our children's curriculum every opportunity we get, so I'm always printing maps, breaking out the globe, referring to our world atlas, or referencing our United States wall map. And the World Wide Web makes it easier than ever to get a picturesque glance at the variety of cultures and lands around the globe.
