What do you use as counters in your school?

Math Manipulatives
I love a good deal so when I spotted these little cubes in the thrift store last week I snatched them up.
There are 6 different colors each with their own little container to keep them in. So far Hudson has just worked on simple patterns with them, but they have so much potential.

I love the bags of tiny animals and reptiles I found at the dollar store. I also have old Monopoly houses, old keys and the traditional counting bears. I store them in old canning jars or old condiment jars so it is a nice display, too.
I love a good deal too...I love yard sales, thrift stores, dollar (or in my case--pound) stores, charity shops, etc. These little cubes are cool!
We have the math u see manipulatives. I love the smaller counters though!
So-so neat! We mostly use counting erasers from Dollar Store or sometimes craft sticks or buttons.
wow - what a great score! Great idea!
We use flat marbles, buttons, and now we are using her tiny farm animals.

That's a great find. I use just about anything for counters. You name it we count it. :-) I also like your Walmart find of the dry erase board.
Those look really cool. Great find!
