This is NOT an official Eastern New Mexico University home page. Check for any student food allergies before doing a lesson such as this. If some students cannot eat jellybeans, colored circles of paper could be used, or other miniature colored objects for all students. Children will develop the ability and understanding of sorting by colors, using a graph, learning least, most, and same, and reviewing counting and writing numbers by placing jellybeans on a graph.
Students express mathematical ideas coherently and clearly to peers, teachers, and others.
Students will use manipulatives, calculators, computers, and other tools as appropriate in order to strengthen mathematical thinking, understanding, and power to build upon foundational concepts. Students will describe the numeration system by relating, counting, grouping, and place value concepts. Students will write total numbers of jellybeans at the bottom of each column on the graph. Remind students that they have been learning about springtime and about things that come from eggs. Ask students to recall what kind of animals they have learned about that come from eggs.
