Guest Posted July 5, 2008 Share Posted July 5, 2008 I can see this getting very big!! I have more than one sack for this reason-a number rhyme sack, a nursery rhyme sack and then topic sacks .The number rhyme one is the most popular with the children. sausage, bun tray, alien, duck, monkey, elephant, ice-cream and more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 Hi what a good idea we dont have any sacks. Think i might start doing number ones for my performance management starting this october. Thanks what a great idea. x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 I found a number sack on amazon that my class have really enjoyed, great for 'playing and exploring' and 'critical thinking'. I used it as stimulus for maths circle time inititally and then added it to number area, led to lots of problem solving. I now need another one! http://www.amazon.co...49503941&sr=8-1 Unlike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
