This morning, Libby practiced writing the numbers 1 - 10 with a trace and write activity. Then, she used dot-to-dot pictures to practice counting from 1 - 50. Our lesson looked at how to model math problems with objects, drawings, and numbers to compare numbers. Libby took red and blue counting cubes from a bag one by one and placed them in piles according to their color. Then, she determined which color had a greater amount. Libby continued with the lesson's problems, counting and comparing pictures and selecting the lesser or greater amount.
