Description

Turn student names into meaningful math practice with this Class Names Graph! Students count the letters in their names, sort their personalized name strips to create a whole-class graph, and use the completed class data to practice graphing and comparing numbers. Itโ€™s an engaging All About Me math activity that also helps students learn their classmatesโ€™ names and build classroom community during the first week of school.

Prep is easy with the auto-fill name strips. Simply type your class list once to automatically create up to 30 personalized student name strips. Students can then count the letters in their names and add their strips to the class graph.
