New PD today and love the 10 squares idea for percents using toilet paper. Thinking about using some kind of cereal instead of blocks or beans.

My kiddos loved the idea of using toilet paper in class. In fact, the activity went over better with my algebra 1 classes than pre-algebra. It took them back to the basics without using a calculator. We had a lot of fun and a lot of laughs!
