Super Cute "Math About ME" Dolls...
First, the kids picked three or more numbers that represented them somehow. (birth date, number of people in their family, shoe size, favorite lucky number) For example: if their birthday was on the 24th, they could write number sentences like 6X4=24, 4X6=24, or 12+12=24, etc...
Then, they came up with number sentences to represent the numbers those chose. I checked their papers, before they were given the nice final paper to make their picture frame boxes for their number sentences.
Finally, they decorated a body shape to resemble themselves. I think our "Math About Me" Dolls are super cute. Feel free to share this idea, and have fun making your own!

That is an adorable idea!! I would love to do that project for Open House. Thanks for sharing! :)

DeleteWhat a fabulous idea! These are so cute! These would look great hanging outside of our classroom for Parent Teacher Conferences. I am a new follower.

Do you have a basic pattern for the person that you would share?
ReplyDeleteSorry, I don't have a pattern. I will try and make one up. :)
DeleteI just bought the little kid shapes from our Lakeshore store. Then the students cut out some clothes and hair from scraps of paper I had left over.
