Math Workshop

We have meetings in small group to work on different skills focused on for the week.  We just finished our first chapter in math on addition.  The kiddos are having fun learning the different strategies and ways you can manipulate numbers and objects to "add to" and "take from" a group.  One of our kiddos even used our vocabulary while eating snack.  :)  He said, "look Ms. Rains, I am taking away with my skittles.  I have 4 skittles, I eat 1, not I have 3.  It was so exciting to see him make that connection.  Loving out time in Math so much!

Here are some pictures of us in our small group meetings while the others are in centers.  We were using cubes to show taking away.
