Outside Math

Today was so beautiful we did math outside.  We talked about how to sort and find items by using attributes like shape, size and color.  To practice I gave the kids an attribute and the kids ran to what they could find.  Some kids found large objects like a tree.  Others found squares from a hopscotch game, or even the larger square of the playground.

We also compared and contrasted two similar books.  The best part about these two books is that they were both about reusing clothing and turning it into something new instead of throwing it away.  each child was excited to share something that was the same or different about the two stories.

Have a great weekend.  Remember, Hat Day for helping the pets is Tuesday!
