How to do it
- 1
Draw a shark on cardboard and cut it out.
- 2
Cut a long strip of white paper and put small fish stickers along it.
- 3
Tape two cardboard guides on the back of the shark to make a sliding track for the strip.
- 4
On a second piece of cardboard, paste the shark on top and draw a math equation space at the bottom.
- 5
Cover the equation space with clear tape so it acts like a dry-erase board.
Tips & extensions
If you don't have fish stickers, just draw small fish along the strip with a marker.
