Description of mathematics: 

Number Framework Stages 1-7 

Required Resource Materials: 
Whole Number line flips (Material Master 4-2)
Decimal Number line flips (Material Master 4-31)
Activity: 

Give the students an empty number line that shows only the numbers at the start and end. The  other numbers are shown on the reverse side as a reference. Have the students place a peg, or paper clip, on the number line and ask their partner to guess which number the peg is on. If the students have difficulty to start with, their partner can help by pointing to and saying reference numbers close to the pegged number. For example, “I am pointing to 15. What number is the peg on?”

Extension Activity

Get the students to develop their own number line flips for other sequences, such as the whole numbers between 40 and 60, the multiples of three between 0 and 30, the decimals, in tenths, between 4.7 and 7.2, the fractions in fifths between 0 and 2.6.
