 Teacher Review (Not based on classroom experience)Reviewer: crobrad0709, Jun 10 2008 8:02PM |
Review based on: personal experience |
Appropriate for: practice of skills and understandings |
Other Comments: This would be a nice reinforcement for students to show a given number through the use of base ten blocks. Even if students had never used base ten blocks before, this tool could possibly be used because it counts for you as you add each block. |
What math does one need to know to use the resource? It would help if students were familiar with base ten blocks before using this tool; otherwise they will have to try and find the pattern (every time you add a bar, ten is added to the number, a mat adds one hundred, etc.) |
What hardware expertise does one need to learn to use the resource? This tool only uses the clicking of a mouse, making it very simple for users. |
How hard was it for you to learn? Easy |
Explanation: This is a very simple activity, students simply have to click on "next problem" and they can begin making the given number. |
Ability to meet my goals: Effective |
