More on Addition!

Even after 124 days of school this year I am still amazed at what these little ones are capable of!  We’ve been having a blast diving in to our addition work!  We began our addition unit last week and are now getting into the real “fun stuff!” 

We took a moment in our math lesson to look at ourselves working in math!  The kids LOVE looking at pictures of them working so hard!



For this picture we talked about our first day using number bracelets.  We then talked about the number combination that friend had made with their number bracelet.  I then wrote the number bond on the Smartboard and we filled in the missing numbers using the picture.

Here we talked about the number combination this friend had made using their spoons!  I wrote the number bond and we filled in the missing number!  If you have a moment sometime snap a photo or two of your students working.  Go back and talk about what they were doing in each photo.  It doesn’t have to be the same day…this was a couple of days later when we went over these photos!  It allows for great teaching moments 🙂

We also got to worked on an addition word problem {so exciting!!!} 

I have a ton of these addition word problems packets in my TpT store!  Below is a link to just a couple of those packets! Click the image to view more!

We will now be focusing on addition strategies {number line, counting, on and using our fingers}.  We of course want to move our students past adding with their fingers.  However, for those kiddos that find addition difficult a differentiated strategy is necessary.

On Friday, I will be introducing counting with fingers!  These are going to be a hit I’m sure!  I have a made a set for each student!  Along with working on these fingers we will also use our interactive Funny Fingers and independent practice with a sheet from my Addition {using fingers} packet!

Along with addition we are also still keeping up on number id and place value.  On this day the students stated multiple ways to represent the  number thirteen!

Alright friends it’s almost Friday!  Have a great rest of the week!
