More on top?
No need to stop!
More on the floor?
Go next door.
Get one ten.
That's ten ones more.
Numbers the same?
Zero's the game!
I would like to tweak the rhyme just a little bit. I am just not sure exactly what/how I want to change just yet. Does anyone else have any tricks up their sleeves for teaching subtraction, especially with regrouping? I would love to hear about it!!!
I love this rhyme idea. I could see adding some kind of clapping rhyme to it for your kinestic learners. We have a teacher in our building that puts on a costume to teach it, a moo moo with a pillow for her bottom. To reinforce "Bigger bottom better borrow." The kids just laugh and comment about it the rest of the year.
