New Math Supplies.

So the concept of one subject to focus on per day, combined with the idea of using the black seats to organize and store our school supplies has resulted in something that finally makes sense. each seat now has a label for the day of the week on the front, and the contents are available throughout the day for us to go through and 'play' with. Monday's math went very well. 

Camelot Jr. (found it at Toys R Us)

This game really got both of the boys a little crazy. building blocks, puzzles to solve; had me wishing I had bought two sets. However, what a great excuse and reason to open the doors to teamwork.


Math, sorting, skip counting, practicing counting to hundred.. a jar of popsicle sticks is a wonderful math tool it seems. hurray for abandoned craft supplies!

Our Monday bin also contains games such as barrel of monkeys, memory card game (pick any cartoon of your child's tastes, I am certain there is a version of it out there with those images on it), flash cards, a couple board games, some work books. only the number related stuff went in here! This was a no-brainer however, numbers are pretty concrete, something these boys like to explore learning materials of.
