Students in Ms. Grigoli’s class at Valley Road School in Clark practiced skip counting by 2’s, 5’s, and 10’s by jumping on a floor sized number line.
This activity used movement to provide an opportunity for active learning, while learning important math skills. Each student was able to jump and count as well as cheer on their classmates. They even practiced adding and subtracting using the number line.
After using a floor-sized number line, students have a better understanding for skip counting and using a number line.
