It's super easy to
make. All you need is a piece of poster board), 2 paper cups, 2 paper towel
roll insides, a basket or bowl,dices(or anything to count with-paper clips,
erasers, etc.) and a marker to draw the plus sign! These are all simply taped
to the poster board using packaging tape.My older students love to experiment
with bigger numbers. When 3 students play, one likes to use a white board to
write down whatever math problem they are working on while the other two count
out the beads. The children put the first set of counting items in the first
cup, and the other child puts the second set in the second cup. They all fall
through to the basket, and then they count them all up.
It's such an easy and frugal way to get kids having fun while learning math!
