Mitten Math





We read the Mathstart book Missing Mittens and talked about odd and even numbers. The children constructed 2 mittens to make a pair and we discuss that even numbers have a pair. Then we used our mittens to count by 2's and identify odd and even numbers.

  2. I am always glad to pass on good ideas. This one came from a former teammate April Larremore. Her blog is Chalk Talk under my blog list.

  3. Hey
    Loved your blog on snow. Could you send me the template of the snowy day kids (the ones in red)?
