About Number Corner
Number Corner is an interactive bulletin board that revolves around the classroom calendar, providing skills practice as well as continual encounters with broader mathematical concepts. An essential component of the Bridges in Mathematics curriculum, Number Corner can be also used to complement any K-5 curriculum.
In a Number Corner classroom daily workouts involve whole-group games and activities focused on a specific skill or concept. New pieces are added to the display each day -- patterns unfold, school days are tallied, and coins are collected -- providing the basis for discussions, problem solving, and short written assignments including independent practice. Math becomes less abstract as students are engaged by concrete and accessible models related to computational strategies, place value, money, time, measuring, and algebraic thinking.
What They're Saying
With Number Corner each day is something new – a new discovery, a new discussion, or a new strategy that we share with each other. I am thoroughly impressed with this program.
