KinderMath: Same Number

~I show a number and the children count their objects to make it the same.
~Using a variety of number set cards, partners take turns turning over two cards to see if they contain the same number of items.

~The children will paint an American flag and color a headband to honor our Veterans.   
 ~In a video, Iraqi War Vet, Sean Nies, will explain what a veteran is and what his job was when he served in Al Taqaddum, Iraq. Sean was a Seabee in the Navy and his rank was First Class Petty Officer. His wife was a former teacher here at MLE. See his message here.
