Calendar

Here is today's calendar square.

Tad is moving right 3 squares today. Yesterday he was on 53. When we move to the right we add 1. Since Tad is moving 3 we need to add 3. 53+3 = 

Color this square yellow. 

In calendar we are practicing counting up and back by 10s. In our video morning meeting today I gave you some ideas about ways to practice. 

• You can look at a 100 grid and read the numbers up and down each column. Notice that the decade number changes but the ones number stays the same. 
• You can practice "10 less and 10 more".  What number is 10 more than 89? What number is 10 less than 72?
• Here is a printable worksheet about 10 less and 10 more. 
• You can watch this counting by 10s video.
