The number line is a common visual displayed in K-8 classrooms, but is it being used to its full potential? This presentation with examine the use of the number line as a tool for developing the number sense of students in grades K-8. We will engage in activities highlighting the power of the number line as a tool in K-8 classrooms and deepening our own understanding of how to construct and use number lines to represent quantities and model operations. Participants will explore how number lines can be used to develop number sense with whole numbers, rational numbers, and even irrational numbers!
