Multiplication Stairs for the Kinesthetic Learner
I found these stairs in a school in which I had a professional development meeting. You have probably seen a similar idea on Pinterest of a staircase with brightly colored multiplication cards that exactly fit the stairs. I have checked into the prices to have custom cards made like those on Pinterest and the prices were well over $500. Ouch! The great thing about these stairs (pictured below) is that they look like they were made on a much cheaper budget.
You would need someone who has access to a Silhouette die cutter and a selection of the sticky vinyl to print the numbers on. In addition, you would need a ruler to mark off the placement of each number and lots of time! When I saw this, I thought the idea was fabulous, but I didn’t think that the colors were dark enough to stand out on the concrete.
If your school has used the spaces on their stairs for math facts, leave a link and/or share your experience.
