New rock resources




Yesterday I brought in my new rock resources which I have been painting at home. I have painted the rocks with different colours, and then numbered each rock from 1 to 20 on one side, and on the other side having the corresponding number of dots. This is a simple math activity in which the children count all the dots on one side and then check to see if they are right by turning the rock over to find the correct number. Jack, Donnagh and Charlie spent a long time counting and turning rocks over to see if they were right, with Donnagh saying "look Ann I know how many this one is". Kai Pai boys great counting skills.
