We began math this week! We use the Investigations Math Program to build our math skills. Check out our Math Curriculum section of the blog for more information about Investigations Units and the Math Practice section for information about our current units!
The math games we played this week are: Collect 20 Together, Staircases, Start With/Get To, and Mystery Bags.
Start With/Get To is a class game we play that involves counting and using a number line. We choose a "Start With" number (1-30) and a "Get To" number (2-30). Then we count on the number line from our "Start With" number to the "Get To" number.
Mathematicians played Collect 20 (see the Math Games section for directions).
We built staircases by using cubes to build and notice patterns between numbers.
We started exploring with Mystery Bags. We counted the objects in a bag, recorded our math thinking, and double checked our results.
We had a lot of fun exploring with math materials and playing math games. Ask your child what his/her favorite math choice was this week!
