No Beads=More Productivity

Last night, AB misplaced her beads and we couldn't find them anywhere.  After she went to sleep, I found them in the soon to be classroom.  She must of set them down when we went in there to get stickers.  First thing this morning, she was asking for them.  I reminded her, that we couldn't find them.  Apparently, that was an acceptable answer because we were able to move on to our lessons.  

 I put the numbers in order from 1-9.  She was able to name all the numbers.  Then, I counted the animals on the cards and she picked out the corresponding number.  

 
 She sometimes has trouble with the 3 and 8.  Sometimes, she calls them "m" and "B".    Here, there were 8 frogs and she choose the 3.  
 
When we got to the 3 cats, she reassessed and corrected. 
 Heads and Tails matching game again.  She completed all of the cards.
 She started to do them again, all on her own.  But quickly decided, she was over it.

 First time that she got this far.  Without the distraction of her beads, she finished it without any problem.
 Finished! 
 Chalk drawing on black paper.  AB received chalk for Christmas.

We "found" the beads after we were done.  I let her play with them while Baby B was sleeping.  As soon as he woke up, we put them away.  Tomorrow, we have a two new activities planned and will continue to practice what we have already done this week.  On Friday, she gets to choose whatever she wants to do.  Any bets on what she'll choose to do?
