In math we have been talking about numbers to ten and just started talking about our double digits/teen numbers to 20. We have also been working on subitizing (a fancy word for being able to recognize an arrangement of dots, pictures, etc. and know how many there are within 3-5 seconds ideally). This activity also helps them to arrange images in their brain and to know if there are three dots going down and two on the side, that number should be five because 3 and 2 make 5. We are also working with two part math mats. These help us split a number into two and give us a visual of splitting the number up. eg. 2 on one side and 4 on the other would make 6. We are doing this with all of the numbers so when we get to adding and subtracting it should come easier to them!
Here are a couple pictures of the students working with a partner and practicing subitizing!
