Math CDA this Friday 12/12!!!

We will be having a math CDA this Friday over the following concepts....
Please take a few minutes every day to review with your child.

Represent and solve problems involving addition and subtraction.
MCC.2.OA.1 Use addition and subtraction within 100 to solve one- and two-step word problems involving situations of adding to, taking from, putting together, taking apart, and comparing, with unknowns in all positions, e.g., by using drawings and equations with a symbol for the unknown number to represent the problem.

Add and subtract within 20.
 
MCC.2.OA.2 Fluently add and subtract within 20 using mental strategies. By end of Grade 2, know from memory all sums of two one-digit numbers.

Use place value understanding and properties of operations to add and subtract.
MCC.2.NBT.5 Fluently add and subtract within 100 using strategies based on place value, properties of operations, and/or the relationship between addition and subtraction.

Below are some new links that can help you with these various concepts. Please take time to review these concepts. The children are doing very well with addition but are still have trouble with subtraction that requires regrouping. They are able to perform the operation but unable to recognize when to do it in a word problem.

Thank you!!
Mrs. Mauney

We have been subtracting using place value blocks this week. This video from www.learnzillion.com is a great resource to use if your child is having a difficult time with this concept. Don't forget at the bottom of my webpage there are some links to great websites that you can use for extra practice!

Indian Guest Speaker















We had a great time learning about the Cherokee and the Creek Indian tribes. Our guest speaker taught us about Tomochichi and Sequoyah in authentic regalia!

Red Ribbon Week

Last week was Red Ribbon week. During this week we try to inform the students of the dangers of doing drugs. We had another special guest speaker come to see us from the Sheriff's department, Lt. Mauney from the investigation division. Here are a few pictures of the students learning about how to say no to drugs!
















Mary Musgrove

Last week we had a visitor come and tell us all about her life from a long time ago. She was an Indian princess called Mary Musgrove, and we really enjoyed having her!
