Today during math, we started our math warm up book. I give students a number, number sentence or story problem. Today, it was 6x7. There were to show how many different ways they could show this multiplication sentence. Evan came up with a brilliant way, a NUMBER LINE. This blew Mrs. Dunn away because I have not seen a kid this year use this strategy (we talk about it later on). I love this strategy because it shows not only 6 x7 but also 1x7. 2x7. and so on. Evan was also VERY accurate in labeling both the top and bottom of his number line! Woo HOO!
