Dental Health The kids will meet Timmy & Terry Tooth today. These puppets will teach the kids about healthy/unhealthy foods that affect our teeth. There is a little story to go along with the puppets that the kids will make and bring home today. Read the story again using the puppets!

  KinderMath: Count By 2's Part 2

We will start the lesson by reading the story, Eggs and Legs by Michael Dahl which is about counting by 2's and pairs of objects. The students will use 10 pairs of color cubes (2 red, 2 yellow, etc.) and a set of count by 2's number cards. Partners will first make the pairs from the snap cubes. They will then lay out their snap cubes with space between each set of cubes. Next, they will a lay out the number cards under each set to match and lastly, go back through to practice counting the cubes by 2's.
