More Mental Math Strategies...

 

We are learning more addition and subtraction mental math strategies!! We have now learned 7 different strategies. A collection of these came home last month and posted below. Please use these at home to help with our math work that comes home and to practice these strategies when you get a chance to build our skills of our math facts! Students are loving the math challenges that are presented and should be proud of all they are learning! 


This week, we are reviewing all we have learned so far to give a little more practice of what adding and subtracting means. Next week, we will add on the new strategy called 'Count Bacl'. This is for all other subtracting questions and we will be exploring different ways to tackle this question. We will be focusing on this throughout the week and reviewing all strategies on Thursday. Friday we will have our 5 question quiz to see how we are doing.
