Munching Math! Addition and Subtraction Problems You Can Sink Your Teeth Into

This class is a hands on math class that will work on basic addition and subtraction problems of up to 15 objects using the student's favorite snack such as, (small cookies, M&M's, fruit snacks, etc.). At the beginning of class, we will have introductions and students will have an opportunity to show and tell the snack they have chosen to bring to class to work with. Throughout this interactive hands on class, students will work on number identification, counting out a set of objects, and creating simple math equations to represent our discussions. Students will use math vocabulary such as, [add, subtract, more, less, equal to, total, remaining] to build on their understanding of the concepts covered in class. We will work on addition problems first and then practice subtraction. At the end of class students will have an opportunity to create their own subtraction problem by eating their snack!
