TpT Number Line Freebies

Since everything I seem to be posting lately deals with Number Lines, I thought I would continue the theme with a few Teachers Pay Teachers Freebies that focus on understanding and using number lines.


Number Path/Sequencing
Counting Flip Chart has children count how many items are on the page and then circle the corresponding number on a Number Path.

Help children identify missing numbers along a number line by using this Number Line Scoot Activity.


Addition
Check out this Out of This World number line game that uses addition and subtraction of numbers.  Includes a variation with negative numbers.

This fall themed Double Digit Addition activity gives students the freedom to show their own strategy on the open number line.


Rounding
Rounding to the nearest 10 or 100 can be a difficult concept for students, but using a number line gives them a visual representation that makes it easier to understand.  Check out this great Rounding With a Number Line activity and practice/homework sheets.


Multiplication
Download this simple, yet powerful Multiplication Strategies Anchor Chart.


Fractions
Number Line Lane is a nice activity to help kids use benchmark numbers when placing fractions on a number line.

Get your students up and moving as they build a fraction number line in Fraction Number Line Challenge.

Okay, so this one isn't a free one, but since it is Thanksgiving time I thought I'd share these Turkey Subitizing Cards.

Pinterest Pins I Love!

In my life, this month has unofficially been devoted to Number Lines and Number Paths.  For one of my other blogs I compiled a list of my favorite Number Line Apps, so for my favorite Pinterest Pins this month I thought I'd keep with the theme!


Hang numerals on a line to create a Numbers Washing Line.



Build your own Numeral Track to help kids learn the pattern of numbers. 



This pin links to a blog that shows three ways kids might use an Open Number Line for Addition.  



This pin links to a blog about Multiplication Games, including one that helps kids see multiplication as repeated addition and as hops along a number line. 



Children need to see multiplication in a variety of ways.  Use this idea for a Multiple Representations of Multiplication Facts Sheet
 



Fractions on a Number Line - the Pinterest pin just links to an image so I am not sure where this activity originated, but it is a wonderful visual that you can build with your students.  




Classroom Fraction Number Line Activity in which the kids build this wonderful number line.  You don't have to include all the fractions she does, maybe just halves, thirds, fourths and their equivalents…depending upon your grade level.





Okay, since this is Turkey Month I had to include at least one Thanksgiving Themed Pin:


Practice Subitizing by rolling the die and create a Roll A Turkey
