I am holding a giveaway for one of Dinah Zike's books (out-of-print, I believe...used but in great condition) called Cross-Curricular Classrooms Thematic Manipulatives: Fractions & Measurement. This is a "series of illustrated manipulatives." It mentions using them in conjunction with Zike's Big Book of Books, but if you're into lapbooking or fold-it books, you already know how. Blacklines are included in the book for publishing centers. Making a layered book with fractional parts. A trifold pizza book. Question and answer books for fractions. Pop-up book pictures...and lots more. Basically gives you all kinds of blacklines to make hands-on paper visuals (think lapbooking) while studying fractions & measurement.

I would love this for my hands-on kids! Anything that involves hands-on learning helps math stick.

ReplyDeleteThis is our first year of homeschooling, and we've just started creating lapbooks for a couple of books we've read. Would love to apply that concept to math ... our girls love it!

I'd love to give this a try with my son. He hates to just sit and listen or sit and write, so things that are more hands on are definitely more his speed! heyjade[at]gmail

I love making lapbooks and I think math manipulatives are so helpful to understanding math concepts. I would use them with my youngest 5 or 6 kids. penneymaried @ yahoo . com.
ReplyDeleteI just subscribed through email. I need all the math help I can get!
ReplyDeleteI would love to be entered.

I think it is great to have ideas to show the math instead of just theorizing. I think it will make it much easier for my little ones to grasp the concept!

I am going to be starting homeschool with my 4 and 5 yr old in the fall. I really want to use the lapbooks because I like how hands on they are and how they can practice organizing, gluing cutting, folding etc. Not too sure what the file folder games are?, but would love to know kbalman@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteWe have done lapbooks or other self-made books throughout our learning adventures (5+ years). My children are 4th grade and younger and would love to make math (lap)books. Thanks for doing this giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI have been a subscriber of your blog ever since I joined the living math yahoo group. I love how fun and easy (and effective) your ideas are.
