Stacking the Cats
by Phyllis Lussier
This hands-on lesson is designed for kindergarten students. It integrates literature and Math into STEM. The lesson calls for a read out loud where RL and SL standards are aligned. Math standards are easily connected with cardinality, one-to-one correspondence and addition/ subtraction. Students will learn new vocabulary terms of stability, structure, and balance. The students will use their comprehension from the story to problem solve and stack cats.
