Our mathematicians are doing a fabulous job solving subtraction with regrouping equations and deciding when to add or subtract to solve a word problem. We have learned a few key words to help guide our thinking when solving these word problems.
Today we learned a strategy, the adding up method, to help us solve unknown addend equations.
The children use their math work site time wisely. At each site children practice a different skill to build their math learning. They spend about 8 minutes at each site and have a “coach/partner” to help talk through strategies and to solve equations. I am thrilled to see the growth all of our learners are making!
