This week we did a really cool math lesson; the kids seemed to really enjoy it. This class is getting so good at addition, I think we will start subtraction very soon.
I gave each pair of students (they got to pick their partner) a brown paper bag with 20 connecting cubes (10 ea. of two colors). They had to shake the bag, reach in and grab a handful, sort them, and write the addition sentence to match. Of course, some of them tried their hardest to grab ALL of the cubes, to see what that would come out to be. :-)
I like how these guys decided to draw boxes to put the parts of the number sentences into - whatever works, huh?
