Home Project:  Count everything this week.  How many plates are on the table?  How many forks are in our drawer?  How many carrots do you want for lunch?  How many red cars can we count on the way to the store?  We have learned all the numbers from 1-40 and this week we are working on numbers 40-50.  Identiyfing a number is much different then counting how many you have of something.  One of my favorite toys to play with my kids is the abacus.  It’s basically a bead counter or a manual calulator.  We use it all the time to help with math and to help us count how many time they practice a spot in music lessons.  These are very inexpensive and may be a great investment to buy one.  Click Here for an example.
