Movement in Math

Last week, Jesse came to our math class to teach. She created a fun way to teach the children about "partitions". The children got into groups according to the number put on the board. Then they had to divide up into as many variations as they could figure out while Jesse wrote the corresponding addition problems on the board. For example, if Jesse wrote 4, the children formed groups as Jesse wrote: 4=2+2=1+3=1+1+2=1+1+1+1

Thanks Jesse
