Wordless Wednesday-Repurposing Math Manipulatives


I am linking up today with Christina at Sugar and Spice

 I love when something comes to me while planning a lesson!  I was prepping for a graphing activity and I wanted my kids to work in partners to roll a die and record the result on the graph.  So, I needed to find 9 large dice or cube shaped blocks.  Walking through a second grade class, I spied base ten blocks with thousands cubes! {Insert angels singing!!}
 

 
What other manipulatives do you repurpose?
Please share:)

We are using flip books at the Writing Center this week to retell the beginning, middle and end of Little Red Riding Hood!  I love the simplicity of flip books and kids love the novelty of the flip! 
 
 
Do you ever use flip books in your classroom?  Please share!!
