Counting The Squares In Our Name

This was a simple lesson focusing on our names and counting. 

I found these pre-cut paper mosaic squares at a Lakeshore Learning Center.  

We made our names with squares.
After laminating the kids counted how many squares. 
We recorded our answers on Post-its.

We made a small self-portrait too.
We plan to reflect/record some of our findings after vacation.
The kids enjoyed doing this simple, fun activity. 
I plan to do this in the fall of next year. 
Happy Counting!
