It's time to swim!


Today we are going to warm up by swimming with the sharks...


Start with numbers up to 99. 
If you are feeling super mathy, try numbers up to 999.

Ok, now let's do some coloring. Go to this cute 100s chart...


Choose the 1-100 chart. Pick a color. Start with 4 and skip count by 10s (so add 10 each time, 4, 14, 24 etc). What do you notice? Which number changes when you add 10? Why is that? Now start with some other numbers. Is the pattern the same? 

And now for some good old paper and pencil practice. When you are figuring out these problems, think about that 100s chart, are you adding tens? Is there an easy way to do that? What about the sharks, when you had to count those blocks, did you count by 10s or 1s? Can that help you with the problems?

CLICK HERE for the complete set, but just do page 1, we'll work on the rest later.
