 * Making Bead Strings and Rekenreks-**

Directions provided by Chantelle Kirk. (Thanks, Chantelle!) The Rekenreks are made with a cut 4' x 8' sheet of 1/8 inch Tempered Perforated Hardboard from Lowe's (make sure you do not pay for each cut). The ribbon is 3/8 inch grosgrain ribbon (I singe the ends of the ribbon in a candle flame). The pony beads are the 6 x 9 mm size. I do add a drop of a "fabric" glue to each end before I add the duct tape. I have made 100 bead Rekenreks with these materials as well. One Kindergarten class that I work with used a set of these Rekenreks for about a 2 months. They held up well and I loved seeing the kids build understanding with the Rekenreks! The yellow beads on the blue ribbon is the 1,000 display. I have bought bags of 1,000 pony beads. I put a whole bag of beads on the spool of ribbon. And then, I tie knots to separate the groups of ten and two knots with space between the hundreds. I singe both ends. I am making some with blue beads on yellow ribbon. The last picture shows the red and white hundred strand and tens. These are also on the 3/8 inch ribbon with knots and singed ends. I was hearing about frustration with "regrouping" in second grade. I thought about a way to be able to decompose a ten with these beads. Some of the tens have a clip on the end so that students can decompose the ten.
