Hello friends! Since I am unable to make it to the classroom I will share with y’all so I feel as though I am getting some “teaching” in! We went to school one day last week and we’ve only made it to school once this week due to two large snowstorms! We were out of power all day yesterday but thank God it came back on around 8PM.
Math has certainly become one of my favorite times of the day in the classroom! Our Math times in the past were about 30 minutes. This year my Math time was extended to about 45 minutes, but now that we are working on so many awesome things before I know it we’ve worked well over an entire hour! Our Math time backs up to snack so if we run over it’s no big deal! Here is a list of the activities we worked on in math Monday! I will explain all of them below and leave you links!
Place Value Video/Song {5 minutes}
Place Value PROVE IT! {10 minutes}
Mingle {10 minutes}
Counting Collections {20 minutes}
My #19 Book {from Growing Kinders Fun With Numbers Part 2} {15 minutes}
Math Centers {20 minutes}

So, yes we have all heard of Harry Kindergarten! Well have you checked out his latest teen numbers/place value video? It’s awesome as always!
After this video the students worked on proving that 19 is 1 group of 10 and 9 ones. I’ve mentioned before that we are working extremely hard stating and proving our reasoning! The students have become quite the experts and I now over them asking their classmates to prove it! Nothing like over-hearing five and six years saying “Well how do you know? Can you prove that?”

I posted about Number Sense and these activities which build a strong foundation in number sense a few day ago. Click HERE to view that post! See below for my Number Sense Classroom Resources packet!
You see I am working on my new computer but my old computer works better for certain things!
Tara…thanks for sharing! We love Harry's Kindergarten Videos. We have been watching the Numbers in the Teens Start with a one!!! Can't wait to see the group of ten video!
I just found your blog and have been reading for the past hour! I also teach kindergarten and the district that I work in just started CCSS this year. We've been wading through and trying to figure things out. I absolutely love your TPT items and ideas, especially since they are geared toward K! I can't wait to share your blog with my co-workers!
Amanda,
So glad my blog has been a help to you! Please let me know if I can help you with your transition to the Common Core!

I just went to a PD session last week and learned about counting collections. I love the idea even for my first graders. Your kids are going to be so prepared for first grade 🙂
