Using Our Place Value Sliders
Our place value sliders are easy to print and use. Here is how!
- Print the place value chart of your choice on cardstock, then laminate it. Cut on the dotted lines to create openings for the “sliders.”
- Next, print, cut out, and laminate the place value slider of your choice.
- When ready to use, weave the sliders into the openings of the place value charts, starting from the back. Sliders should move left and right easily once installed.
