My favorite item are these necklaces, I was thinking that I could cut them up and use the plastic hearts for counting.
Then I decided to cut them by strands for numbers 10-15.
Lastly, it turned into this idea...
I'll post what I finally decide to do with them. Do you have any ideas???
I never would have thought of cutting them, good idea! You could let kids measure things with them and see how many hearts long the items are. Or just match them with the number of hearts on the strand.
ReplyDeleteReminds me of Math their way beads. 2 hearts plus 8 hearts (you've cut them into different amounts) and they count the two groups of hearts to get the answer.
ReplyDeleteI need to go shopping and get materials for all your cute ideas!
