50th Day Goodies
I can't believe we're getting ready to celebrate the 50th day of school. It feels like we just started! We don't do much for the 50th Day (compared to the extravaganza on the 100th) but I like to do a few fun games during math time. Help yourself to any that you might be able to use on your 50th day!

Then, we'll play a game that's always a favorite - Race to 50. It's played in pairs and each partner chooses a different color crayon to use. Taking turns rolling a die (or 2 dice if you're kids are ready for that) the kids color in the number of squares on the game board that matches the number that they've rolled. How fast can they get to 50? Be prepared for a noisy math time!
Next, when we need to restore a little peace and quiet, we'll end the day with a search and color activity. There are 50 shapes inside the number 50. First, the kids color in the shapes according to a color chart (hearts are red, etc.) then they count and record the number of each shape that they've found.
I hope your first 50 days have been fabulous!
