The Grade 2 class is being asked by Mrs. Ferrie to practice up the number facts and adding strategies. The Grade 1 class is just beginning to learn and use these strategies, so the following information will benefit both grades.
There are a number of strategies used when adding. These include:
- counting on (starting with the larger number, and counting on)
- doubles (5+5)
- doubles plus one (5+6... think 5+5+1)
- doubles take away one (5+4... think 5+5-1)
- doubles plus two (5+7... think 5+5+2)
- doubles take away two ( 5+7... think 7+7-2)
- making tens (6+7... think 6+4+3)
- nine plus (9+5... think 9+1+4)
- in-betweens (5+7=6+6)
The Grade 2 students have worked with the Horizon School Division website to access a number of math resources and games. Follow the link below, and select the appropriate Grade level, and then select the subject of Math. There will be a number of resources for each area of math that we cover.
I will also add this link to the Learning Links menu on the right hand side of the blog.
