Hello! As I was looking through photos from before winter break, I came across quite a few Math ones. I figured I would whip up a post to share what we've been doing in Math! I will first start by saying that we are "piloting" Go Math. At first I was super annoyed b/c I liked how I had taught Math prior...using Everyday Math and incorporating tons of games and Math tubs with it. Now, it seems like we are doing constant workbook pages, which I hate. I've tried to slow down and incorporate fun things within it but then I feel "behind" my team and/or other first grade teachers in the district. #teacherproblems I have managed to get a little better at it, which makes me happy! I have about 1 hour for Math. We do Math right after our read aloud in the afternoon {after recess}. To see my morning schedule click here. To see my afternoon schedule click here.
We learned about using a 10-frame as a tool for addition. These free 10-frames are available here from my friend Jen and you can get them here. I love my gigantic 10-frames! They are magnetic...So perfect for whole-group lessons. I wish the colors of the chips matched, but oh well! These are from Learning Resources and you can find them here.
We learned about doubles facts. I showed Harry Kindergarten's youtube video every day for several days. The kids love it so much each year!
I found these great doubles 'cheat sheet' cards on TpT here. They worked out as great references for doubles games.
We played a few doubles games. This one below is from my "Math Games on the Fly" pack. I love this pack b/c the games can be quickly printed out and used in class immediately. No need to laminate/cut! Click here for a freebie from the pack!!!
We also played this frog doubles game, which you can find here.
We began working on 3-addend addition using these mats and game from Susan at TGIF. She has a great little pack which you can find here.
Because we were learning about holidays around the world, we did this fun 3-addend/poinsettia scoot that you can snag for free here.
And as always, we did some exit slips from my "Math Exit Slips" volume 1 and volume 2 packs! Love having these at my fingertips!! These are great for a quick check!
Have a great week!
