Subject: Estimation, sorting and Colors
Materials: 6 different color Bouncy balls, jars, construction paper with the words: rose, jaune, bleu, multi couleur, vert et orange. Handout sheet with the boxes: jaune, orange, bleu et vert, glue and scissors.

Time to teach: Step 1) Gather at the meeting corner to discuss the rules of the activity. Rules = sort the balls into the correct jar and count how many there are in each jar.Step 2) Discuss the word estimation and what it means: Un calcul approximatif de la quantit. Une ide approximativeStep 3) Go over the colors: Quelle couleurs est ce quil y a dans ces tasses?Step 4) Ask the questions Combien de balles pensez vous il y a dans ce pot? answer a few students. Step 5) Have students guess each jar of bouncy balls. Once they have estimated how many will be in each jar, ask volunteers for each jar to come up and count what is in the jars. Step 6) Pick one student for each color to come up and count the balls by having them place them into the jar (choose selectively). Step 7) After counting two different colors (ex: orange and green) ask: -Est-ce quil y a plus ou moins ballons oranges? (They can take the balls out and put them back in but NO bouncing the balls or throwing the balls!)
Time to Learn: Have students go back to their seats with a handout. They will then cut out the balls and glue them into the correct boxes. The instructions will be: Cut out: 4 jaune, 6 orange, 3 bleu et 5 vert
