I thought a good activity found on Pinterest would be to have students pick a monster and a group of eyes. The students would roll the dice and know thats how many eyes they need to correspond to the number on the dice.

The book characters are showing that they know what was the last number they got too and they also know when they add one more the number goes up. One activity that can be done is printing off some friendly monster pictures and having the students count them and then add some monsters to their groups. ]]> 2022-02-01 19:57:20 UTC https://padlet.com/earlystem/zlv9hdk4ag4x8dmc/wish/2024180399 https://padlet.com/earlystem/zlv9hdk4ag4x8dmc/wish/2024181331 I chose the book, "Monster Needs One More" and the topic that connects to this book would be the one-to-one correspondance. On each page, a monster is asking for one more of an object and each monster recieves one more! Throughout the pages each object is corresponded to a specific quantity that the monster has. I found a really fun activity online that allows students to use eyes to place on their monster to make one more or one less. The middle is where their number will go and they will be able to visually see what one more and one less looks like. ]]> 2022-02-01 19:57:53 UTC https://padlet.com/earlystem/zlv9hdk4ag4x8dmc/wish/2024181331 https://padlet.com/earlystem/zlv9hdk4ag4x8dmc/wish/2024182711 Ten Creepy Monsters 
Early into the book I noticed that hierarchical inclusion was being used. The group of monsters is decreasing showing that nine is in 10, 8 is in 9, and so on. It also uses cardinality because they are saying how many are left at the end of the sentence. I chose the activity attached because the students can build their own monsters by putting the numbers together, or they can take away the numbers as the book does and watch the monster disappear. ]]> 2022-02-01 19:58:38 UTC https://padlet.com/earlystem/zlv9hdk4ag4x8dmc/wish/2024182711 https://padlet.com/earlystem/zlv9hdk4ag4x8dmc/wish/2024184820 I chose the book "Monster Needs One More" to read and as I was reading, I saw a lot of Cardinality within the book. Throughout the book, they showed a lot of different objects they were counting and often added "one more" each time. For the activity, they will " add one eye" or "add two eyes" etc. to their monsters. ]]> 2022-02-01 19:59:46 UTC https://padlet.com/earlystem/zlv9hdk4ag4x8dmc/wish/2024184820 elizabethkspivey2 https://padlet.com/earlystem/zlv9hdk4ag4x8dmc/wish/2024185197 I read the "Monster Needs One More," and one of the number sense strategies that this book uses is stable order. Throughout the book there are the same counting words or group of words that are used and does not change. This is good to use with little ones, so they can become familiar with those words and do not get confused. Some of the words or phrases that are used throughout the book are; "one more" or "I had ___, now I have _____." 
An activity that can be used to go along with this book would be any counting activity. The teacher could use pieces of candy, pencil erasers, counting blocks, etc. to show a stable order. ]]> 2022-02-01 20:00:00 UTC https://padlet.com/earlystem/zlv9hdk4ag4x8dmc/wish/2024185197 https://padlet.com/earlystem/zlv9hdk4ag4x8dmc/wish/2024185243 I read "Monster Needs one More" and while I was reading some topics I came across were Hierarchical Inclusion and Counting. The activity I chose is one where the students go through the cards and place as many eyes as the card says and add or subtract eyes when needed. ]]> 2022-02-01 20:00:02 UTC https://padlet.com/earlystem/zlv9hdk4ag4x8dmc/wish/2024185243 https://padlet.com/earlystem/zlv9hdk4ag4x8dmc/wish/2024185863 The book that I chose is Ten Creepy Monsters. This book goes well with the topic of comparison because as the book goes on, more monsters are taken out of the story so they can see that there are less monsters on the page than what was there before. The activity that I found is an activity where the students work in pairs and compare different numbers.]]> 2022-02-01 20:00:23 UTC https://padlet.com/earlystem/zlv9hdk4ag4x8dmc/wish/2024185863 https://padlet.com/earlystem/zlv9hdk4ag4x8dmc/wish/2024186741 I read "Ten Creepy Monsters", and the book focuses in on how many monsters there are. This focuses on counting and cardinality. For this activity, there will be different puzzle pieces, some with number and some with a different amount of monsters. Students will practice matching the puzzle pieces with the correct numbers.]]> 2022-02-01 20:00:54 UTC https://padlet.com/earlystem/zlv9hdk4ag4x8dmc/wish/2024186741 https://padlet.com/earlystem/zlv9hdk4ag4x8dmc/wish/2024190494 I chose the book "Monster Needs One More". I think it corresponds with one to one principle because the monster keeps asking for one more object. I think it also uses cardinality because they keep counting up by one as the book goes on. I found an activity on google for adding less or more eyes onto the monster. ]]> 2022-02-01 20:03:02 UTC https://padlet.com/earlystem/zlv9hdk4ag4x8dmc/wish/2024190494 https://padlet.com/earlystem/zlv9hdk4ag4x8dmc/wish/2024190621 This book is using the one to one correspondence by counting from 10 to 1 as something happens to the monsters along their walk. It starts with 10 and as the story goes along 1 monster is taken away at a time until there is only 1 left at daylight. This is a great way for kids to count backwards and start looking at subtraction by taking away 1 from the number of monsters there. This activity can go along with the book and have a different student take away one monster as the story goes along. ]]> 2022-02-01 20:03:07 UTC https://padlet.com/earlystem/zlv9hdk4ag4x8dmc/wish/2024190621 https://padlet.com/earlystem/zlv9hdk4ag4x8dmc/wish/2024190644 I read the book Ten Creepy Monsters. I think that subitizing, one to one correspondence, and counting connect with this book. An activity that students could do after reading this book to build on the lesson would be the monster eyeball counting cards. This activity could be completed in small centers or small group. ]]> 2022-02-01 20:03:08 UTC https://padlet.com/earlystem/zlv9hdk4ag4x8dmc/wish/2024190644 https://padlet.com/earlystem/zlv9hdk4ag4x8dmc/wish/2024191502 I chose the book "Monster Needs One More" and the topic that goes could be the one-to-one correspondence. On each page of the book, there is a monster asking for one more of something and then he receives one more. He tells us how many he had and how many he has now. The activity I chose is one where students can match the written number with the number of eyes that the monsters have. It can then be switched to adding the number of eyes on the monster that the card reads. ]]> 2022-02-01 20:03:39 UTC https://padlet.com/earlystem/zlv9hdk4ag4x8dmc/wish/2024191502 https://padlet.com/earlystem/zlv9hdk4ag4x8dmc/wish/2024191918 I chose "Ten Creepy Monsters". The story begins with 10 monsters and as it progresses, monsters get taken away. This story could help students build rational counting skills. The story also demonstrates cardinality. I found the ten-frame bubble board in the picture and thought that as the book was being read and there was a monster "taken away", the students could push a bubble in on their individual boards until there were none left. ]]> 2022-02-01 20:03:55 UTC https://padlet.com/earlystem/zlv9hdk4ag4x8dmc/wish/2024191918 https://padlet.com/earlystem/zlv9hdk4ag4x8dmc/wish/2024195218 I chose the book "Monster Needs One More". The book shows a one-to-one correspondence and also talks about a monster having cookies, so students would be able to pull a card that is numbered 1-10 and feed the monster the number of cookies that are on the card. This can be done individually or in pairs. ]]> 2022-02-01 20:05:51 UTC https://padlet.com/earlystem/zlv9hdk4ag4x8dmc/wish/2024195218 https://padlet.com/earlystem/zlv9hdk4ag4x8dmc/wish/2024195329 I chose the book Monster Needs One More! I felt that this book related to cardinality, which involves being able to tell how many items are in a set. I found a fun little matching game that allows children to practice cardinality skills. It uses counters, words, and tally marks to represent each number 1-5. There are different little pictures that have a variety of number of eyes and the children are tasked with matching the number with the number of eyes on the monster(s) by using the varying representations of numbers.]]> 2022-02-01 20:05:55 UTC https://padlet.com/earlystem/zlv9hdk4ag4x8dmc/wish/2024195329 alexiswells42 https://padlet.com/earlystem/zlv9hdk4ag4x8dmc/wish/2024199934 I chose the book "Ten Creepy Monsters". I noticed in this book there was evidence of one-to-one by each page the number of monsters went down by one. This helps the child recognize subtraction. It also uses cardinality by saying and "then there was", this is allowing the children to make the relationship between we had 7 monsters we took one away now we have 6. The activity I chose is mini monster eraser counting. This allows students to be able to work hands on with adding and subtracting. ]]> 2022-02-01 20:08:25 UTC https://padlet.com/earlystem/zlv9hdk4ag4x8dmc/wish/2024199934 https://padlet.com/earlystem/zlv9hdk4ag4x8dmc/wish/2024208865 I chose the book, "Monster Needs One More!". While reading this book, I noticed that the book shows that the number sense used is cardinality. The monsters are counting hw many are in the set and then adding more and the last word in the counting sequence shows how many objects they have. A great activity for after reading this book would be to give the students a number and allow them to put monster eyes on the monsters and add one more as you read through the book again. ]]> 2022-02-01 20:13:27 UTC https://padlet.com/earlystem/zlv9hdk4ag4x8dmc/wish/2024208865
