Math
What a busy week we have had in math! Students began the week learning how to subtract 10 from a 2-digit number using mental math. Next, students practiced measuring and drawing line segments to the nearest half-inch. On Wednesday, ordering numbers using Base Ten Blocks was our focus. After the fact assessment on Thursday, students reviewed subtracting 3 facts. Friday is our written assessment and students will learn to identify gallon, half-gallon, quart and liter containers.
