Math
We worked on estimating and groups of 10 today!! I poured beans on the carpet and I asked the students to make an estimate as to how many beans were on the floor. Students wrote their estimates down in their math workbooks. I asked the students how could we find out the number of beans we have? They said by counting. I asked if anyone counted by tens before. Some raised their hands. I asked one student to show me how they count by tens. She said 10, 20, 30,40, 50,60, 70, 80, 90, 100! I said yes that is correct! I told students we are going to group the beans into 10!
I started the first group and counted till I got to 10 and I the students counted the rest of the beans into 10. Once we were done counting I asked how many groups of 10 did we have? I told the students to count each group! We got 9 groups of 10! We all counted each group like earlier and we got to 90!Then I asked them if we had any beans that were not in a group of 10? They saw we had 3 extra beans and I said we have to count these as well to know how many beans we have. We said 91, 92, and then 93! We had 93 beans on the carpet!
After I got the class to draw the beans into groups of 10 in their math workbook. A lot of students circled each group of 10 and after drew 3 beans to show what was left over.
