Quick images

I was surprised how well my 5th graders took to the quick images activity.  When we worked with the 3rd graders, I was thinking to myself "Oh no, how am I going to do this with my class and make it work?"  Would the students be as involved as the 3rd graders?  And yes, they were.  I used the quick images activity as one of their morning activities.  They were all so engaged, and loved sharing the patterns they were noticing and the tricks they were using to count the dots.  This activity went so well I told them that, if as a whole class, they could all follow the classroom expectations we would do more at the end of the day.  They were excited and respectful for the rest of the day!
