Hide 'N Seek

In Math, students played a game, "Build The Biggest", to practice using tens and ones blocks to represent a number, and comparing numbers to 100. The person with the largest number won a token!

Welcome Back to 2020!

Students were excited to journal many stories of their adventures over their Christmas Break.

In Math, we began Unit 7: Number Sense: Addition and Subtraction with Numbers to 100. In this unit, students will review counting and ordering numbers to 100. They will also explore various strategies and tools for solving addition and subtraction problems within 100. Students will use hundreds charts, base ten blocks, ten-frames, and number lines. Strategies will include counting forwards and counting backwards, and making use of the connection between addition and subtraction.

Here is a copy of our letter, outlining the Home Reading Program.
