Math This week students will continue work in Module 5. They will represent numbers 0-10 using their fingers. Then they will match that representation to the number and number words. We will also be working with 5 frames and 10 frames. Students will continue to work with identifying, writing, and counting objects for numbers 11-20. The “teen numbers” can be tricky for some students. I have attached the website for some of the teen number songs that we have been using in class. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E8mMXiSRLnU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fv10fp00HYY Star Students 12/12 Jackson 12/13 Lakshmi 12/14 Ray 12/15 Olivia 12/16 Atticus *Star student gets to bring in a show and tell.
