Today we connected with Ms Lirenman’s grade one/two class to have two Mystery Number Skype calls. The grade ones tried to guess a number between one and twenty and the grade twos used numbers up to forty. We’ll be using progressively higher numbers as the year goes on.
We’ve been having weekly Skype calls with Ms Lirenman’s class in Surry, BC to play “Guess Our Mystery Number” and to improve our sense of numeracy. We’ve been slowly building up to larger numbers. This week we used the numbers up to forty. This is what it looked like during the call as Ms Lirenman’s class tried to guess our number (you can see it taped on the calendar in the top right of the picture).
And then we tried to guess their number. You can see that we were getting very close.
We’ve been working with and practicing numbers up to one hundred. These students have been counting, making groups of ten and recording numbers (as well as working to get that just right picture of their work).
