Math
We are practicing our doubles addition combinations by playing a game called Double It. Students draw a card, record its double, and make a table to show which numbers appear most often.
Our discovery? Odd numbers are never the answer to a doubles addition combination!
This image was flashed on the SmartBoard for 3 seconds only. Students were to figure out how many dots were on the screen. There isn't enough time to count them all, of course, so we came up with other strategies. They understood that the first two ten-frames had 10 dots total and that adding 4 more dots to 10 was easy. 14 DOTS!
