*No Book Club this week so I can do individual assessments for report cards.  Math: Numbers 20-29

Today’s lesson focuses on the first of a few lessons that will seem to be duplicates of each other. Kindergarten students need A LOT of hands-on work to understand numbers to 100. We want to make sure the kids have a FIRM understanding of a “ten” so when they see 45 they see 4 tens and 5 extras.  

 Build Numbers to 29: For this activity, the kids need 29 snap cubes. I will start by having students build TWO 10 sticks as they will use these for each number I will give them to build. After they have built their cube sticks, I will have them build:
 28, 26 23, 22, 29, 27, 25, 21, 20, and 24.
