We brought number line as part of flocci this week. We played game, read a chapter of time line and solved some problems based on number line. The number line on the wall was real excitement for children where they could feel it and play with it. All children explored it differently. At the end of the flooci few children shared:
“Almost each and everything even grocery shopping we can use number line. Time line is great fun. I would like to make timeline for my father’s life.”
“Number line can help us when we are out of our country also because it’s not only for Indian currency. I can use different currency and make number line.”
“Number line is fun. Calculations can be faster on it. I am more comfortable with negative number now. Time line is also great fun and tool to remember interesting/important events. I would like to explore more ways and areas of using it.”
