Looks like a bit of work, but really cool project. Teaching Science With Lynda

Mine are made from carpet stair treads. Pretty sturdy, but I am envying yours!! Might have to make another trip to the hardware store. I think I live at that place 🙂 They always laugh when they see me coming. "What are you trying to make this time???"

I went to a math PD just before the school year was over, and the presenter had us practicing with these! Yours are much fancier than the ones I used at my PD but they are oh-so-fabulous!

It's easy to hold and hang up and it fits on the Elmo if I need it to.

I cut the paper in half, put a sticker on the right so the kids know which way is up, the laminate. I use a two hole punch for the holes ( love that thing) and "balloon" string. I have the kids put the beads on (which my aide and I check) the tie and tape them. They last all year then I send them home with them at the end of the year with a sheet of activities.

I had already decided to make a large rekenrek with PVC and pool noodles for me to model on in my classroom for the coming year, but I am going to have to make these for my kiddos. Thanks so much for sharing!

It's a great math manipulative that I'll definitely share with the younger grade teachers at school!
