Math Monday






Here's a little thingy that little dude and I started recently. It's a number matching game with jacks(large) and number cards. Using the numbers 1-5, Mom lays out the number of jacks and asks tot to make the match with the numbers. If they are struggling, give them a choice . .. "Is it the matching number 2 or 5?" Pretty simple. I use sentence strips to make number cards. A good game for waiting rooms, if you have a stroller with a tray.

  1. Hi Jenny! How have you been all of these years?
    Nice blog! Are you a homeschooling mom? We homeschool Levi, our 10 year old. You have some neat ideas! Kid are ALWAYS learning. We enjoy natural learning. Have you read any books by John Holt? http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0201550911

    I got in touch with Coco. She lives in Washington State. She has a son and twin girls!

    Great "seeing" you!

  2. Thanks for checking out my blog and the John Holt info. I'm not familiar with his stuff. I'll have to see if they have any of his books at our library. I'm not really homeschooling my little guy, just enthusiastic about early learning. I was a Kindergarten teacher in my pre-mommy days. BTW-Who are you????

  3. I'm Selena, I was in 4th grade with you - Miss Lessa's class! I was good friends with Coco. We came to your house and swam in your pool a few times. I remember your sister Beth, too.
