A storybook reader is scheduled for 9:30 to read Tacky the Penguin.


New Concept: I have an egg carton that I have made a few changes to. Normally an egg carton would have 12 spots to hold the eggs. Let’s count to see how many this carton has. I am going to drop a cube in each spot as I count. So how many do I have? (10)
Whole Group Explore: Today, we are going to play a little game called “Pass the beans.” Let me show you how to play. Each pair of students start with an empty egg carton and a bag of manipulatives. Students will place the manipulatives in the egg carton slots as they count. Then I will give the signal, “Pass the beans” and the bag of manipulatives will rotate in a clockwise direction. Continue this until all items are counted.
Before we start, let me tell you, some of the bags have 10 times and some do not. Try to remember which ones had ten.
As students are exploring, notice which students need to count vs. the students who know the number without counting.
Which bags had 10? How did the egg carton help you?
Student Application: Students will work independently to identify groups of 10.


Project: The kids are painting a rainbow with Q-Tips. It will have a pot of gold at the end.

Have a GREAT weekend!
