OREO Day!

We have been practicing counting numbers to 100 by 1, 2, 5, and 10's.  We are counting both forwards and backwards. We learned how to make tally marks and figure out if the number is even or odd.  We have also been talking about which number is greater than or less than.  To wrap up our unit on numbers, we did a fun activity with OREOs.  The goal was to see how high we could stack the OREOs before they toppled over. The students worked with a partner trying to get the highest stack of OREOs.  While one student was stacking, the other student was counting.   It was so fun to see the students stacking and counting.....trying to get the highest number.  Our highest stack was 23 OREOs high!!!  

After we stacked our OREOs we tasted different flavors of OREOs.  We created a graph that showed which flavor we liked the best.  Thank you for all the OREO donations you sent in!  Fun projects like this are not possible without the support from home!

This is a fun activity that you can do at home with your child.  How high do you think you can stack the OREO's???? Do you think you can make a tower greater than 23?
