This week students continued to learn about subtraction in Topic 2 Understanding Subtraction. We learned how to find the missing part by counting up, start with whole number when subtracting, and check to make sure our number sentence makes sense.
Everyone enjoyed learning how to Read to Someone. Students sat EEKK (elbow to elbow, knee to knee), read the whole time, got started right away, read to build stamina, took turns reading with their partner, and coached their partner when needed. Partnerships were able to read for a whole 5 minutes which is fabulous for their first try!
Thank you to all the volunteers who accompanied us to Calypso Farms and the Children's Museum!
