Dear Parents,
Today we focused on mathematics, specifically numbers and counting. The first activity we did today was creating a numbers book. Each child was given paper and instructed to color in the worksheets I had passed out. On the pieces of paper were the numbers ranging from one to ten. At the bottom of the paper was space to glue objects. We practiced counting with buttons today. On each sheet of paper we practiced counting buttons then gluing the correct amount of buttons to the paper. For example, for seven I had the students color in the seven. Then we learned to count out seven buttons. Once we had seven buttons we glued them to the paper. This will help the students visually represent the number seven. After all the pages were completed we put all the pages together and stapled them together making a “Numbers with Buttons” book. Every day we will practice counting using our Numbers with Buttons book and occasionally I will bring in candy to practice counting such as M &M’s or Smarties.
Sincerely,
Ms.Gammell
