♦ I generally have cards 1-16 placed on one section of the classroom walls, and cards 17-32 on the opposite side. Students solve at their own pace. This is to cater to all; students who would perhaps need more time and the early finishers.
**There is so much fun and excitement as kids walk around the classroom solving the cards. They seem to be racing to finish them all :)
*********************************************************************
PREPARATION:
♦ Stack and perfectly align sheets. Cut along task card borders carefully. Work with 3 sheets at a time for better manipulation.
♦ Laminate cards for durability. There are four cards on a single sheet.
♦ Store cards in zip-loc bags (small plastic pouches). Label with the specific number operations skill featured.
