This is an interesting numeracy display which a 4th grade (Year 3) class have done. It’s obviously been the result of a whole class activity and I think using the children’s own hand prints makes quite a strong impact.
I do think it could have been more clearly labelled though. It’s not always obvious what operation has been performed and that could have been used to advantage. Had it been a classroom display a bit more interactivity could have been added with questions and cards on string to turn over to see if you were right.
Although I like the idea of the display I think it’s a bit messy. The layout spills over the edge of the board in a slightly random way which I don’t think works. I would have preferred to see it within a frame and with more even spacing. But then I’m a bit fussy like that 
Actually, classroom displays that aren’t mounted absolutely straight and evenly spaced drive me nuts!
Love this idea!!!!
Great activity. Did it with my grade 3′s on a friday afternoon…they had fun with it. We posted them on our “math wall”. Thanks for sharing the idea!
Glad you found it useful Sandra
