Proceeds from this fund raiser were donated toward the Sam Goudy Medical fund. Sam is a student in our classroom who is awaiting a kidney transplant. The students helped raise over $400.00.

Counting using "Ten Frames".


How many kernels of corn are there in one handful ? Students were presented with this problem, and were asked to solve it using ten frames. Making groups of ten made the job a whole lot easier. "Counting by 10's is easier and faster"said Tiffany. "I'm real good at counting by 10's" commented Colby. The verdict is in, there are a lot of kernels in a handful of popcorn, but it is easier and faster to make groups of ten when counting them.
