Make a Bigger Number

 


How many different ways can you move ONE stick to a different location and create a bigger number?

(Ex: take the bottom left stick from the 6 and put it on top of the 4 to make 95. Or move the horizontal crossbar in the 4 and place it vertically under the stick on the 4's left side to make 116.)

What's Happening?



This school year, I'll be posting pictures of animals and nature, but in odd or different poses. 

Have the students explain what they're seeing. What's happening? See if they can create a story out of it.

As the year progresses, have them write the words down, forming sentences by the time summer recess arrives.
