Counting Contests and Beautiful Flowers!

Students had fun this morning having Counting Contests with partners.  They used  place value charts and "tens" cups to see if they had more or less than their partner.  

This afternoon we painted our flowers.  (I'll post some pictures of the final project when they're mounted and up on the wall.)  Here are some pictures from our day.
Have a great weekend!
