Shake It Off!


This cute video was borrowed from "Kickin' It In Kindergarten".
Write two different numbers on the board while playing “Shake it Off”.   
Students have to use their hands to “shake off” the smaller number. 
"I started off using numbers 0-10 but they have gotten really good at it so I’ve started to use larger numbers. I modeled the thinking process of looking at two numbers and then making the decision of which one was smaller. In order to get kids to think and use strategies, you have to model it for them.
I hope that the video gives you a better visual!"
