February - What?!?!?!

Oh my!  Can you believe it is already February?  CrAzY!!!! I have not been a very good blogger lately.  I started to apologize for it but then decided not to!  Ha! I have totally been enjoying family time!  My youngest is playing basketball, my oldest is about to turn 13, I have been hitting the gym like crazy with my good friend, and we have had all kinds of activities going on at church.  I'm loving it!

We have been crazy busy in the classroom as well.  Last week was MLK, this week (after another snow day - ugh!) is Rosa Parks, next week is valentine's activities and then the next 2 weeks will be devoted to Lincoln and Washington.  I just pulled out all my valentines center and activities.  I will definitely be using my February Math Centers unit.

Here's what's inside:

One Less and One More

The student will pull out a number card from the bag/basket and write it inside the box.  Then they will write one number less on the left and one number more on the right.

Counting On

Same concept, the student will pull a number card from the bag/basket and write it in the box.  Then they will write the next 3 numbers.

Subtracting 10 – Adding 10

One Less - One More

The student will pull out a number card from the bag/basket and write it inside the middle box.  Then they will write one number less on the left and one number more on the right and the 10 less on the top and 10 more on the bottom.

Place Value

The student will pull out a number card from the

bag/basket and write the number in the correct boxes on the place value chart.

It's Common Core Aligned!

Number and Operations in Base Ten   -   1.NBT

Extend the Counting Sequence.

1. Count to 120, starting at any number less than 120.  In this range, read and write the numerals and represent a number of objects with a written numeral.

Understand Place Value.

2. Understand that the two digits of a two-digit number represent amounts of tens and ones.  Understand the following as special cases:

a. 10 can be thought of as a bundle of ten ones - called a “ten”

b. The numbers from 11 to 19 are composed of a ten and

one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, or nine ones.

c. The numbers 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90 refer to one,

two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, or nine tens (and 0 ones).

I'm hoping to be back next week with some pictures of these centers in action.  We have some more snowy weather headed our way so we'll see!?!?!

Have a great rest of the week!
