Math Activities

Here was a quick math activity for DD. The princess bookmarks were from here.
It had been a while since LD did this place value activity, so I added this in to our other activities.  I really like the purple paper beads which I printed out from here. I bound 10 sets of 100s with a brad to make a 1000 bead bunch.  While we also have actual Montessori beads, I've used this set lots and lots. You can see in the picture that LD had to build the number by laying the thousands on the bottom, then 100s, tens and units.
LD did a number of other activities as well -- work in a math workbook, work with me with our Right Start Math curriculum and a math game (yet another round of Fast Track!)

  2. I went and printed these out. I use Rightstart as well and I love these cards to go along with the manipulatives that we already use with Rightstart. Love the idea of the brad to make 1000.
