Math

We just finished Topic 3 (Place Value) last week. Each student received his/her graded test today.

We started addition and subtraction of whole numbers today. We worked on counting up in subtraction and doing mental addition. This gives students a better understanding of what is happening when they are subtracting or adding rather than just producing an answer. The next few days will be spent learning how to add and subtract larger numbers and how to accurately check the work.
