We had an incredible turn out at Open House tonight! I am thankful to have such wonderful and supportive parents. I loved talking with each of you. Please don't hesitate to contact me anytime you need me.
This week in math, we are continuing to explore place value. Last week we learned to represent numbers with base ten blocks. This week, we are learning that we can show numbers in more than one way. For example.. You can show the number 57 with 5 tens and 7 ones, 57 ones, 4 tens and 17 ones, 3 tens and 27 ones, etc. We do this to help build mental math strategies that will be needed for addition and subtraction with regrouping.
Here are some action shots of us using base ten blocks and drawings to show numbers!
