Each child had a paper with a\u00a0number 1-20 and we needed to put them in order. We counted one by one and put the numbers in order, then practiced counting them forwards and backwards.\u00a0 We talked about what we\u00a0had created: a number line.\u00a0We took turns walking along our number line and\u00a0stepping by each\u00a0number as we said it.\u00a0While working\u00a0on\u00a0our math workshop\u00a0problem (a take away problem), I challenged some friends to utilize the number line in their thinking. How could you use this tool to help make a subraction problem easier for you? Monica drew a number line in her math notebook and then counted backwards and crossed out the amount of numbers being taken away. Ruth and I worked together to show &#8220;hops&#8221; on a number line and drew backwards. Our class will continue to discuss and utilize number lines throughout the year. This is a valuable tool that can greatly help in our mathematical thinking!<\/p>\n<p>After Reader&#8217;s Workshop, our class read a book called City Numbers by Joanne Schwartz. This book is really unique because it is filled with\u00a0photography of numbers all over cities. The kids were excited to see such unusual numbers in such interesting ways (a light up sign that said 2.5%, a store sign that read 7.99, an address) we decided to go on a number walk of our own and see if we could find unique numbers around our school. We wrote what we saw and took pictures. We plan on creating a number book in the style of Schwartz&#8217; book tomorrow.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1230\" style=\"width: 235px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.butler.edu\/school60\/files\/2011\/09\/9.27.11-019.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1230\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1230\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.butler.edu\/school60\/files\/2011\/09\/9.27.11-019-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"http:\/\/blogs.butler.edu\/school60\/files\/2011\/09\/9.27.11-019-225x300.jpg 225w, http:\/\/blogs.butler.edu\/school60\/files\/2011\/09\/9.27.11-019.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1230\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Friends on our number walk.<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today during math workshop, our class had a challenge.
