Tenmarks

On Wednesday morning, I attended a training at the District Office on a new math program that the district is piloting.  It is a supplemental program that is meant to aid in student learning and retention.  Our class was chosen to try out the program at Oakland.  I gave all of the students their log in and password information today in class.  This will probably change over the weekend when I have time to go in and reset everyone to their lunch number.  However they do have two assignments that they can complete.   If they complete the assignments by Monday morning, I will give them an extra 100 in math.  Please let me know if you have an trouble logging into the site below or any questions/concerns that might come up will your child is working on their assignments.  I am hoping this will be a very beneficial addition to our classroom.

Subtraction Strategies

The links below will go through the different strategies that we have worked on in class during our Subtraction with regrouping unit.  We are trying to help the kids to understand the why behind the marking out of the ten and the adding of the one in front of the ones place.  I hope this will be helpful as you review with your child at home.

Expanded Form

Today in math we worked on Subtraction with Regrouping using expanded form.  I showed the students a video of myself teaching them how to solve a problem like this.  Below you will see the link for this lesson. 



I hope this will help to make homework easier for the rest of this week :).
