Christmas Door Contest

     Here is a picture of our Christmas door for the contest.  My idea was to use T’was the Night Before Christmas.  Each children created his/her own mouse, colored and cut out a stocking, and traced and cut out his/her hand for the fire in the fireplace.  A couple of children helped color the trees on the rug , and one wrote the note.

Using a 100 Chart

      On Friday, we were talking about 10 more/less and 1 more/ones less.  We were using a 100 chart to discuss how to locate the number.  I would call out a number.  The children would place a see through stone on that number.  Then I would ask them to move it to the number that is 1 more/less or 10 more/less.  We would take about how they moved the stone.  1 more moves the stone to the right.  1 less moves the stone to the left.  10 more moves the stone down.  10 less moves the stone up.
