Frogs jump into math at HANC

Posted

Frogs here, frogs there, frogs are jumping into kindergarten math activities! After learning in Parshat HaShavuah about the plagues that struck the Egyptians, kindergarten students at HANC’s Samuel & Elizabeth Bass Golding Elementary School, in West Hempstead, were surprised to find frogs on their math papers!

The teachers explained that they were using the frogs to learn about number recognition and labeling sets. Each student rolled a die and counted the pips on the side of the die that was showing. The students then colored in the section of the frog that had the numeral representing that number of pips.

The students kept playing until all frogs were colored in. Afterwards, they agreed Pharaoh would have enjoyed these frogs much more.
