A Hunt for 100 Life Savers

On Tuesday afternoon, the children went on a hunt for 100 Life Savers that were hidden in the classroom!  We explained to the children that each Life Saver had a number from 1 to 100. Once they found a Life Saver, they had to come and tell us the number and place it on the number grid. It was challenging to keep all those Life Savers on the grid,but the children worked together to meet the challenge.  After we filled the grid, we sat in circle and counted the Life Savers in groups of 10 until we reached 100.  The hunt was a fun way for the children to practice the math skills of number recognition and counting by ones and tens. Math was definitely a sweet adventure on Tuesday in the Curious George Class!
