Teachers are always on the lookout for any material to use in the classroom. If an item can be recycled to create a game or activity, it not only saves us money, but helps the environment too.
I save all of my soda bottle caps and reuse them for numerous math activities, as well as crafts. These pattern strips were a favorite in my Pre-K classroom, with students continuously wanting to play with them. They don't take too long to make and they last for years if you laminate the strips. You can place this activity in the discovery and manipulative centers to allow more students to have access at one time.
