Let's hang out the numbers.

Yay, I found some creative mojo today and finished my new products.  Introducing my new series called 'Make a Number Line'.  For the first instalment, I've used From the Pond's winter clothes set.  The idea of this product is for students to engage in any lesson to do with number/place value and physically hang the numbers to create a number line.  I developed this idea (you guessed it) hanging out my washing. 

Here is how I created my number lines.

 
Print the cards to A3 and laminate.  I found a tall container that fits the string, pegs and cards.  Make sure that the string or rope you will use is durable and at least 3 metres long.
 
 
The photo above shows the 0-100 pack.  As a starting point you can ask the students with the 0, 50 and 100 cards to put their numbers on the number line first.  This will make it easier for the other students and then can lead into discussions about 'what half of a number is?'.
 
 
Sorry for the crammed number line - needed to squish for the photo.  Thanks to my partner too who is hiding behind the corner holding this up.  You could call students out one or two at a time to put their number on the line.  They could work individually or with a partner.  If a student puts the number in the incorrect place you or the other students could guide them to where the number should go. 
 

It's very important for students to understand number placement and this activity can be used as a great class lesson.  I've made four packs in the winter clothes set 0-20, 0-50, 0-100 and 0-1000. 
Keep reading to see how you can grab a pack for yourself!

To celebrate I'm going to be giving 3 lucky people the chance to win all 4 number line sets.  To enter click on the Rafflecopter and enter your details.  If you can't wait, click on the picture for each pack and it will take you to my TpT shop.  They are all HALF PRICE for the next 24 hours.  With school not so far away, these are a steal and a lot of fun.

Workin' on it - Minus the Wednesday

Today I'm linking up with the KiderGals for Workin' on it Wednesday/Friday here in Aus.  This is a product that I have been working on for a month now.  I think I have finally found the motivation to get my robot into gear (this will make sense soon) and finish it over the weekend.

When I went to a new year level mid way through the first term, I didn't have many resources for my new grade.  So TpT was my first point of call.  We were looking at 3 digit addition and subtraction.  After the first lesson I knew that my class was ready to work with regrouping.  I went onto TpT but couldn't find exactly what I was after, so I came up with Regrouping Robots.


This pack will have 10 different addition and subtraction activities with and without regrouping.  I just love the robots and of course the are From the Pond - find them here.  Stay tuned because when I have finished there may be some copies up for grabs.

Head over to the KinderGals blog to see what others are workin' on.

Am I Right?

Just a quick post before I log off.  I wanted to share a new concept that I have been working on which is my Am I Right? task cards.  These cards are perfect for math centers and a ton of other uses such as SCOOT, gallery walk etc. 
 
Students work out if the answer on the card is right or wrong by choosing yes or no.  I have started the collection off with addition and subtraction to 10 and 20.  Make sure that you keep a look out because these babies are going to grow!

100 Hundred Charts for the 100th Day

What a crazy week it has been!  Here in Australia we have experienced some of our hottest days, while in America it seems to cold to even function.  I have just got back from some time on the Sunshine Coast with my friend, it was nice to just relax and listen to the waves.

I have finally finished a product that I have been working on for a couple of days.  Introducing 100 Hundred Charts to fill in to Celebrate the 100th Day!  Here in Australia we don't seem to celebrate this milestone as much as our American friends but I am making it my mission this year to go all out.  Our 100th Day is still a while away, I still don't even know the names of the students that I will be teaching this year,  while it's just around the corner for others.  This activity is ideal for differentiation as the number of missing numbers varies. Students will use and develop their knowledge of number to 100 by filling in the missing numbers.

Currently December

 
 
 Listening- I had enough of cleaning my room today and came home from work early for once.  I had dinner on the table by 5:30, kitchen cleaned by 6 and ice cream at 6:20.  So while I'm on the computer (working/blogging/shopping) my partner is watching the Simpsons.

 Loving- This is our first Christmas in our house.  Last year I bought a lot of the decorations during the boxing day sales and got some great buys.  I bought lots of gold and silver and decided that I needed a black tree.  We found the perfect one at Masters.

 Thinking- That I have nine days left and then HOLIDAYS!  I am so grateful for this this to spend with family and friends.
 
 Wanting - For the first time in 3 years I am moving rooms.  I have had a smaller room but it's been my home for 3 years now.  When I first moved in it was an off salmon colour which I couldn't stand.  I got permission to it which I'm so glad I did.  I am actually moving to a whole other year level so I won't be taking much with me.  That's why I wish the magic cleaning elves would appear anytime now!
Favourite Tradition- Every year my Mum insist on playing the worst Christmas CDs ever and I mean ever!  I really don't know where she finds them.  But they have become such a tradition that I couldn't imagine Christmas without them.
 
 Plus have you checked out the TpT sale yet?
