All you really need to make this is a ruled cutting mat, foam or cardboard and a sharp crafts knife. I choose foam rather than laminated cardboard because I can imagine how frustrated a child would get when his mat is knocked and everything slides all over the place after spending hours working on this. I think I will also make another one from very thick card and not laminate it. The only problem I have now is trying to find gold coloured foam and a suitable storage box. I'll upload my own photo's once I get my laptop working again.
Here is a link I found for a presentation of this.

I was wondering if you could post on the Decimal Checkerboard. Or perhaps you know of an Internet link?
I don't know how to use it and I'm doing decimals with one of my kids. I'm tempted to buy the NAMC Math albums, but they are so expensive!
I found some 6-9 Math albums but they are missing fractions and decimals :(
As always, I really appreciate everything you share on your wonderful blog!
