Cuisenaire rods


Students use cuisenaire rods to explore number combinations.  Today students challenged their partner to come up with another way to make the number they made.  Then, they returned the challenged until there were no more ways to make that number using 2 rods.  This works helps children to learn about equality and develop increased fluency for math facts.  First graders are learning about equality and the meaning of the equals sign so INQUIRE with your child whether 6+4=3+7 is a true number sentence.
