Materials: Chips Ahoy!
chocolate chip cookie, cups
Description:
Pass out cookies to all the students till the
bag of Chips Ahoy! is gone. Have the students break apart the cookie
and separate the chocolate chips from the crumbs. The students
can then eat the crumbs, but they have to count out the chocolate
chips into groups of tens. They should then put every 10 chips
in on paper cup. When all the students are done separating their
cookies the class can count how many cups there are and figure
out if there really are "1,000 Chips" in every bag.
This activity helps the kids to count by tens.
