1. This week add the numbers 35 and 36 to your number books.
2. Remember to write 35 on the first page, 36 on the second page, thirty-five on the third page, and thirty-six on the fourth page and repeat with the rest of the pages.

Picture Books:

1. On the thirty-fifth page put the following on top in the middle of the page: 35(make sure its big enough)
2. Then a little bit below the number 35 put the spelling of the number 35 (thirty-five).
3. Then directly below the word one put a picture of any Thirty-five items like dots, stars, or hearts(make sure it is Thirty-five items. Use can use stickers if you want too.)
4. What is really neat to use for all this is foam letters, letters and pictures.
5. On the Thirty-sixth page do what you did with the thirty-fifth page except use the number 36, the word thirty-six and a picture of 36 items like 36 items like triangles, squares, or circles

Index Cards:

• Place the number 35 on a card, word thirty-five on a card, a picture of thirty-five items
• Also write the number 36 on card, word thirty-six on a card, and a picture of thirty-six 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+ 25 = 36 on the other side have a picture of thirty-six items. And the number thirty-sixwritten out.  Try not to go above = 36. Keep it real simple.

Number Sewing:

• Don't forget you can have your child sew the numbers 35 and 36. 

Memory Game:

• You and your child can now play their memory game with the numbers 35 and 36.

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.

Math

• Supplies Needed:  Buttons or Poker Chips, Cup

1. Lay down some buttons or poker chips like: 2 chips, then ask your child to add 2 more.  Keep them separted.  Then ask your child 2 + 2 = ?. Explain as you go.  Show them 2 chips + 2 chips = 4 chips.  Have them count them out, if they can't figure it out.  Using two different things/color helps out.
2. You can do this for subtraction too.  For example: have 4 chips(ask your child how many chips are there) and then ask your child to take away 2 chips and place them in a cup.  Ask them 4-2=?  See if they can figure it out.  How many chips are not in the cup?  

• Math Patterns: Paper, Pen, Crayon

1. Write a number pattern on a piece of paper. For example: 2,4, 6,2,4, _,2,_,6,_,4,6 or 2,3,_,3_,2,_,_2,3.
2. Have your child fill in the missing numbers.
