Math

Each day we have math in our classroom. Generally speaking, we have math every afternoon after lunch. Monday thru Thursday we have new learnings that we build upon throughout the year, and on Friday's we review the new learnings from the week. Each day, we begin math with our new lesson, and wrap it up with calendar and counting up to 100.

Today we learned a new game, "Top-it". In the game top-it, each person flips over the top card in their pile and the person with largest (or smallest, if we want to mix it up) gets to keep both cards. This is a game we play different versions of all year long. Today we played using dot cards but later in the year we'll use number cards. In the spring we play addition and subtraction top-it where we'll add or subtract the two cards in our hand to find the sum or difference.
