Since we use Right Start math, we have a modified abacus, stacking place value cards...and um...popsicle sticks. Among other things. :DSheralynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00810756188047843145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-789010692601154000.post-76478567336211351012010-12-14T18:30:05.241-05:002010-12-14T18:30:05.241-05:00Actually, it only took about 30 minutes or so to p...Actually, it only took about 30 minutes or so to put together. (I already had the number cards ready.) The hardest part was finding something to use as a spacer to keep the craft sticks up.RockerMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13543179627497952349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-789010692601154000.post-36447338722121340482010-12-14T16:15:10.193-05:002010-12-14T16:15:10.193-05:00Okay, that sounds like a ton of work, but that was...Okay, that sounds like a ton of work, but that was truly awesome! Good job, and impressed or not, place value is so important, I'm sure this will come in handy when he is a little older!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13841297851874457415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-789010692601154000.post-62510851879108883462010-12-14T15:07:26.494-05:002010-12-14T15:07:26.494-05:00Bear is often not interested in things I make her....Bear is often not interested in things I make her. We just use a paper teen and tens board (printed from a printable version) and Bear consistently tells me how hers at school lets her slide the numbers in. So maybe I should add spacers and popsicle sticks to hers!

I have found that sometimes if I put it away and pull it out after a few months he will become interested.Zonnahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12514228143703477870noreply@blogger.com
