Ok. So my hubby just pointed out to me that this year when we have December 12, 2012, it will be the last time we can use the same number 3 times over when writing the date (12/12/12) until the year 2101 (01/01/01.... 89 years from now).I am thinking I want to commemorate "12 day" by doing some fun activities with my kiddos. I'm thinking I will try to have students complete 12 of everything that day.
For example:
* All of the answers to our Morning work math problems may equal 12.... wonder how long before they catch on?
* Since it is close to Christmas we may learn the 12 days of Christmas song during shared reading. Crayola has a cute craft idea for the story that you can find here.
* I made up this fun sheet for my students to complete that day:
Are you planning on celebrating 12 day with your students? How are you going to commemorate the event? Let's pool our ideas and come up with a fun calendar math centered day!
