Math Menu

We started Math Menu this week. The children have different activities to do each day once they complete their math work. I meet with small groups to work on reviewing and practicing important number sense skills. Last Tuesday during our professional development day, I went through all the fall math assessments to determine appropriate groups and skills to practice. Children will be working on becoming fluent with ten frames, writing and identifying 2 digit numbers (especially teens), and showing finger patterns to 20 to work on place value. Children who are already fluent with these skills will be working on rich problem solvers.

The Math Menu poster shows the activity and who meets at the teacher station each day.

One of the activities during the week is to play a math game with a friend when you finish your work. 

Another day children use their Chromebook to practice skills.

The children also use Try a Tile pages to count and add numbers when their work is complete.
