Reindeer Chow

We had reindeer chow today.  Together, we sorted my reindeer chow and counted each group.  Then, we graphed the food and wrote the number at the top.  Next, each child got to sort, count, write, and EAT their own reindeer chow.  Fun and YUMMY!  Thanks to parents for sending our "chow".



The chow is in a ziploc bag inside the brown bag.
I just dipped out each child a scoop for their paper.

writing







They have sorted, counted, written, and now ready to EAT!

  2. Love it!! What all is in the "chow"? Do you mix it all in a big bowl first, and then give each student a scoop to sort?

  4. This was so much fun! The reindeer chow was pretzel sticks, goldfish, marshmallows, m&m's, and chex cereal. I scooped out each child a spoonful to sort and yes I mixed it all up first then let them do the sorting/counting.
