Thirsty For Knowledge Thursday:
Foam Number Books:
- This week add the numbers 31 and 32 to your number books.
- Remember to write 31 on the first page, 32 on the second page, thirty-one on the third page, and thirty-two on the fourth page and repeat with the rest of the pages.
Picture Books:
- On the thirty-first page put the following on top in the middle of the page: 31(make sure its big enough)
- Then a little bit below the number 31 put the spelling of the number 31 (thirty-one).
- Then directly below the word one put a picture of any Thirty-one items like snowflakes, boots, or gloves(make sure it is Thirty-one items).
- What is really neat to use for all this is foam letters, letters and pictures.
- On the Thirty-second page do what you did with the thirty-first page except use the number 32, the word thirty-two- and a picture of 32 items like 32 flowers, 32 icicles, or 32 babies.
Index Cards:
- Place the number 31 on a card, word thirty-one on a card, a picture of thirty-one items
- Also write the number 32 on card, word thirty-two on a card, and a picture of thirty-two items.
- Add these cards with the your other index word cards.
- Remember to add the numbers and words to your key chain card holder
- Remember to keep on teaching your kid's math. Here's an example: Write on a card 11 + 22 = 32 on the other side have a picture of thirty-two items. And the number thirty written out. Try not to go above = 32. Keep it real simple.
Number Sewing:
- Don't forget you can have your child sew the numbers 31 and 32.
Memory Game:
- You and your child can now play their memory game with the numbers 31 and 32.
Math:
- Remember to do more math with your child.
- Ask them questions while you drive.
- Show your child how when you cover the second number in a double digit number how it goes 1, 2, 3, 4. For example 10, 20, 30, 40. And how the second number does the same thing: 11, 12, 13, 14. This makes it easier for children to understand how easy it is to figure out what number comes next.
Yarn Math Art:
- Supplies Needed: Construction Paper, Yarn, Glue and Scissors : Have your child make numbers from pieces of cut up yarn.
Make Your Own Calendar:
- Supplies Needed: Calendar, 20 Pieces of Copy Paper, Hole Puncher, Yarn, Marker, Crayons, Glue, Old Magazines, Ruler, Pencil
- Show your child a calendar and what is usually on a calendar. For Example: The Holidays Months, Seasons, Days of the Week and Moon Phases.
- Then have your child draw their own pictures for each Month or cut out pictures for the pictures. They could draw pictures that would go with each month. Like for January-Happy New Year or Snow, February-Hearts, Love, March-St. Patrick's Day, April-Easter, May-Mother's Day, Memorial Day, June-Summer, July-Fourth of July, August-Back to School, September-Labor Day, October-Halloween, November-Thanksgiving, December-Christmas.
- Assemble the pictures in the right order and have the pictures facing down. Punch 3 holes across the top of the paper. Hold them together with string, tie it with a knot. Or you can staple them together.
- Then on each blank page write the month. Then just below the month, use a ruler to divide the paper into the days of the week and enough squares for the days.
- Show your child how the numbers are and how some have more days than others.
Number Maze:
- Draw a maze on a sheet of paper. Make sure to have dead ends and only one way out.
- Then write the number 1-32 or whatever you wish. Make sure on the dead ends make it look like that might be the right way to go.
- Your child must then go through the maze going in number order until the finish.
Missing Ladder Number:
- Draw several different ladders.
- In-between each rung, write down some numbers, in order, 1-8 or 5-12 or whatever you wish. Make sure to leave out some numbers.
- Then have your child fill in the missing numbers.
