Math: Concept 1: Numbers to 100 represent quantities that can be decomposed into 10's and 1's.
Connections: During this unit you will building imagery through counting by 1’s, 2’s 3’s 4’s 5’s, 10’s, 100’s and 1000’s building computational fluency and number sense.
Concept 2: Development of computational fluency in addition and subtraction with numbers to 100 requires an understanding of place value.
Connections: During this unit you will practice skip counting and you’ll observe your child counting and writing numbers. You will play the number line game and the number card game. You will be counting by 10’s, 100’s and 1000’s and will work up to hundred thousand. You will strengthen number sense and place value understanding through practice and play.

Curriculum Overview
You’ll use a running story to characterize each place value for your child. Bringing the concept of place value in this way will support your child to develop a living picture of what each place value means in the context of the whole world! When you incorporate all the senses into your story the images in your child’s imagination become alive and long term. Not only that, but you develop a love for the story and its content. You’ll accompany the stories with hands-on activities to practice the movement of place value and give these abstract concepts some context. You’ll use elements you decide to use as models from your story and you’ll also play around with nature items and things from around the house. The key is to practice, to keep concepts alive as living pictures, and to have fun!
