Photo copies for Gr 2. Open Space required. Auditoriums work well. A classroom is possible but desks must be pushed back
Need Open space. If in the classroom, desks need to be pushed back
I can learn while moving. I can do math in many interesting ways. I can understand how math relates to my everyday life I can move creatively, dynamically and with joy. For teachers- I can see how kinesthetic learning works
Whole Body Math(prek -2nd grade) is an innovative math program that explores numbers and math through the physical body. Students of all grades will be encouraged to move dynamically and creatively while crossing the mid-line, exploring new movement and balance all while doing math!. Grades preK-2 will play moving math games to solidify numerical concepts. Kindergartners will focus on addition and subtraction by moving their bodies through space and in patterns. Grades 1 and 2 will learn fractions and time while moving and becoming parts of a whole. In addition, 2nd grade students will learn to measure with non standard and standard units and log their long jumps on bar graphs. Heidi uses tools she has created like fraction mats, giant dice and a movement key.

Grade 1
Grade 1: Mathematics: Geometry: Reason with Shapes and their attributes Cluster #3. Partition circles and rectangles into two and four equal shares, describe the shares using the words the words halves, fourths, and quarters and use the phrases half or, fourth of, and quarter of. Describe the whole as two of or four of the shares. Understand for these examples that decomposing into more equal shares creates smaller shares.
