Chicka Chicka 1, 2, 3

We read Chicka Chicka 1, 2, 3.

The class did a whole group counting activity, 

in preparation for today's individual math activity.

 Next, children worked individually to identify 

numerals and count the correct number of stickers.

 The children also wrote numerals 1 - 8.

The children worked together to sort the numbers.

The class used the numbers to retell the Chicka Chicka 1, 2, 3 story.

The class played a dice game.  

The children would roll the dice and place 

the corresponding number on the tree.

During our closing circle, the children wrote numbers 

on the Chicka Chicka tree on the dry erase board.

Today's math activities provided an opportunity to observe and access the children's math skills. 

 The observations will assist me in planning future math activities.
