Number Bonds

Number bonds are a great way for students to see the part-part-whole representation of addition. This week I have created a matching game, where students have to match the number bond to the addition sentence with in combinations of ten. The pieces will be laminated and cut apart. Children who struggle with number bonds will play with the cards face up. The others will play as a normal matching game.

Spooky Addition

Tomorrow is the start to my favorite month! Not only is it my birthday month, it's time to celebrate Halloween! We are not really allowed to celebrate holidays at my school... as in spend the whole afternoon dressing up and eating candy. My solution is to create cute Halloween themed standards based lessons. This activity meets the CCSS.Math.1.OA.1. I plan to do one prompt a day with my class for the whole week. They will cut the prompt out and glue it in their math journals. We will then color and solve. You could of course make them into a booklet as well. We simply do not have enough time to do them all in one day.
