Math Centers!

I am so excited to share with you what we are doing in math this year.  We are exploring a new way of learning math through guided math groups and learning centers.  My students are getting an opportunity to engage in more hands on learning and work with me on specific math skills in a small guided math group.  We are off to a great start and my kiddos are loving the fun activities each week. Check out a few of our centers this week.

Technology Center

Game/Activity Center

This week students were practicing their subtraction facts.  They played SUBTRACTION SMASH by smashing balls of play-doh to represent the number they were taking away.

Work Center

Students complete their daily practice page and then practice tracing and writing numbers 1-20. Hopefully this will help with all of those backward numbers I see on their papers=)

Teacher Center

In this center students were writing number sentences and showing their work to go along with story problems I was reading aloud.  They did a great job!
