Teacher Information

This investigation helps you set up your class expectations when students are working with a partner. It begins with counting concepts, building numbers on a ten frame, exposure to 2-D and 3-D shapes, and looking at your daily schedule.

The first day, students have an assignment to choose two items. One item is a toy and the other is a math tool. They explain their thinking. Students also count from 1 - 23.

On day 5, after students have had the opportunity to explore the tools in class, they choose their items and explain their thinking. Students also count from 1 - 30 in their assignment.

Students have the opportunity to explore math tools and how to use them appropriately.
