Counting is MORE than NUMBERS

playing a number game that is "racing"
 The kindergarten mathematicians continued with number work; rolling dice to make pieces move, measuring length of feet and body parts with unifix cubes, and counting items in a bag (more than 10) and showing the count. The trick was in the showing of the work, as we are still learning how to make numbers face the way that they need to, as well as what the numbers 11-20 look like. To add to the challenge, the children have been asked to work in pairs, which will be an ongoing learning experience as you can see from the pictures!
