Creating and Composing Shapes!

Our Math Geometry Standards require us to model shapes by building them from components.  Some of us even went a little further by using simple shapes to form larger shapes! You can see how much we enjoy creating and composing shapes in this short video!

Developing Number Sense

Our subtraction fluency is expanding as we play this fun math game, Hiding Bears.

You will see us hiding different combinations of 10 bears in a "cave" and using different strategies, like counting on, to figure out how many bears are in the "cave".

This is a game you can play at home with any small object!

Measuring with Nonstandard Units

This week we have been working on measuring with non-standard units.  We are learning to measure accurately. For example, we are practicing how to line the end of the object up with the units we are using to measure and to make sure we don't have gaps between the units.  When you click on the link, be sure to notice the intensity on some faces and excitement on others!
