Classe Grenadine: Guess My Number
"Love this idea! What's the number? Kids ask questions like Is the number greater than/less than....? Is the number between ___ and ___? Is the number in the tens place ____? etc. No two questions in a row can make the same comparison. Or students may ask in number sentences- - Is the number 5+1?" (Pinterest)

Rekenreks

 


Rekenreks are great tools that provide a visual representation of the math problems. The students learn to immediately see sets of 5s and 10s within the numbers they are working with. They can then branch out to see other patterns as well, i.e. 2s, 3s, etc. I made mine out of 3" x 6" craft boards (pkgs of 6), bracelet string, and pony beads.

Number Relationships

The more patterns students can detect and figure out, the easier math becomes. Math fact families are part of this learning. Adding and subtracting are learned together (see these examples of Fact Families).

The article Learning Special Number Relationships explains more.
