Students in Ms. Aldridge's second grade class are using plastic coins to learn how to add and subtract money.
You can have your child practice this in daily life - ask your student to make change, count pennies, or be the banker when playing a board game. It takes a little longer, but it's worth it! As a reward, these students are playing Math Jenga - a favorite! Each piece has an addition or subtraction expression that the student must evaluate before adding the piece back on top of the tower. You can do this at home - math practice can be FUN!
The 8th graders in the picture above are completing an activity created by their fabulous math teacher, Ms. Feddiman!
It's good to mix things up every once in a while... Ask your student what fun academic things he or she is doing in class! |
