Math:
This week we will be introducing the following math skills:
- Commutative Property (identifying that 3 +2 = 5 is the same as 2 + 3 = 5.
- Associative Property (To add 2 + 6 + 4, the second two numbers can be added to make a ten, so 2 + 6 + 4 = 2 + 10 = 12).
- We will continue to work on adding and subtracting multiples of ten from numbers on the 120 chart (56 +20 = 76 or 89 -30 = 59). We know that when we subtract a multiple of ten we go towards the top of the chart- number gets smaller and when we add a multiple of ten we go towards the bottom of the chart- number gets larger.
