In math this week, we will continue our unit on continued counting. We will discuss that pennies are one cent each and practice using these in our ten frames instead of cubes or counters. We will continue breaking numbers down into tens and ones and discussing base 10. It’s important for students to know that our teen numbers have 1 group of 10 and there are some left over as well as how to write the decomposing number sentence/equation both ways (15=10+5 and 10+5=15). We have also talked about bigger numbers and will continue to work on identifying how many tens and ones there are in those numbers. We will also work on comparing sets of objects and numbers using the “alligator” sign. Students will learn that the alligator always eats the bigger number. We will also discuss how to read these number comparison sentences. Students will get to play a partner dice game and card game to work on comparing numbers.
