Today the students used a variety of hands-on materials, technology (smartboards) and visual and verbal prompts to practice their mental math skills. They started with a 10 frame mat and some counters. They then showed a variety of numbers using their manipulatives by following some written and verbal prompts. Some even made connections to our patterns unit by creating an AB pattern with their counters. Ask your child if they can show you "one less" or "two more" of a chosen number! Get them to use their mental math skills!
