Math

In kindergarten we try to use manipulatives during math class. Manipulatives can be anything from corn seeds to colored plastic bears. We recently did a math lesson for subtraction using the bear manipulatives. The students love being "the teacher" and telling a math story problem.
One of my all time favorite student-made story problem is, "Once there was a family of 5 eating dinner. Then, 2 didn't like the dinner, so they left. How many were left?". They are very creative at this age. I'm sure that didn't actually happen at their house :)
