Black Yarn
7 pieces cut 12-inches long
Number digit cards 0-9

Operation symbol cards
for addition and multiplication
(+ and x)
What We Did
First, the girls laid out the yarn as in the picture, so that there were 5 vertical lines and two horizontal. The vertical lines created columns to keep the numbers lined up. Then they laid out the number and multiplication symbol cards above the top horizontal line to create the multiplication problem. Then, as they solved it, they would place the other cards, including the addition symbol card, in the correct spots below the top horizontal line, showing the the steps to finding the product.
