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

Pinterest Pins I Love!

I really tried avoiding Pinterest because I heard how addicting it is.  I finally gave in and yes it is addicting but it is because of how much wonderful stuff there is out there!  I just can't stop learning.  Here are a few of my favorite pins that I thought you might enjoy:

Use paint color sample strips to create Missing Number Sequencing Strips.





Place Value Cups are a wonderful visual to help children see the value of each digit within a number.




A great way to make Attendance be a math activity.




A fun apple themed array model for multiplication.
