Yesterday, I took out many math supplies and put them all over the classroom. I asked the students to pick a number between 4 and 12. Then, I challenged them to use the supplies, or anything else they found around the room, to build that number or represent it. As they made the number, they captured it in the app Pic Collage by taking a picture. After taking many pictures of their number in different ways, they created a collage of ways to represent that number. It was cool to see how creative the students got with the materials. We had a great time with this project and I was able to see how well students understood both building numbers and how to use math tools.
