- We got the More/Less Spinner again.
- K. spun. If it landed on "Less" then we would each go to our rooms and find something that weighed less. The person who brought the item that weighed the least won.
- If the spinner landed on "More" then the winner was the person who brought the heaviest item.
Here the spinner was on "Less". I brought the scissors and K. brought the Tinkertoy contraption.
Tuesday we counted by 5s.
- We went outside and looked at some flowers that had 5 petals, so we counted how many petals were on a plant.
- Most stems on a rose bush have 5 leaves, so we counted the leaves on the rose bushes.
Wednesday we worked with Capacity - Cup/Quart/Gallon
- I got out the liquid measuring containers for 1 cup and 1 quart, and an empty milk container (gallon).
- I poured water into the 1 cup container and K. told me when it was at the 1 cup line.
- Then she poured it into the 1 quart container.
- When the quart container was full she poured it into the gallon container (with the help of a funnel).
- We kept a chart of how many cups and quarts it took to fill the gallon container.
Thursday K. wrote the numbers 21 through 40.
Friday played with Number Theory again.
- I got out the number line and we did
- first
- last
- next
- before
- after
- between
