US Grade Kindergarten - 3
Let’s play and learn with m & m’s!! In this one-time class learners will practice counting m&m’s, subtracting m&m’s, and creating patterns with m & m’s. This is a fun and easy math class to brush up on some important math skills. Learners will begin with estimation, followed by color sorting, counting, graphing, patterning, and the best part EATING the m&m's. Learners will need one bag of regular size bag of m & m's (or 55-60 m & m's). Please wait to have learner open the bag after class begins because we will do estimating at the very beginning of class where students estimate how many m & m's are in the bag as well as which color they think there will be the most, and the least of. Included is worksheets in black and white, as well as in color. You can print according to your preference.
