Learning intentions for our day...

• What a great first day back!  Although we all came in ready to learn, we reviewed expectations for Read to Self before delving into our Daily 5 routine.  Some of us also needed to choose new books and visited the Learning Commons.
• In Math, we began to examine the relationship between addition and subtraction by using the 'Make 10' fact families.  We created equations to show our understanding of this relationship.
• We are about to focus on story writing so as a jumping off point today we started a writing activity to show what we already know.  We were given a picture prompt and began to plan a story which we will write tomorrow.  So many wonderful ideas emerged!  

Ask me about...

Here are a few online math games that you can play to help you develop your mental math fluency for addition and subtraction!
