Numbers 11-15

We are learning how to write and construct numbers 11-15. We cleaned our tables and practiced writing numbers with shaving cream. Then we used cubes and a five frame mat to compose and decompose numbers 11-15. We are learning that we do not need to count the 10 cube train. We are also learning to use the five frame to tell how many more we need to make 15 by looking to see how many spaces are empty.
