I think the kids would enjoy it and learn at the same time. Its a great idea that I think I will use when my pre-k students, I mean using Jump Frog Jump and the lily pad number line. They love that story. Thanks for the idea! You could have Jane jump 3 spaces and then John could could jump 2 spaces, then ask the students how many spaces were jumped in all?

You could use die cuts or poker chips, or whatever for the flies. So lets say some children have 1, or 2, or 3 or 4 flies, etc. Then you hold up a number, say 5, and the children must pair up with a partner to make that number. Then you can discuss that if the number was 5, then there are different combinations, like 1 +4, or 2+3. This could be applied to any other story book. Just find items that match the story.
