STAR of the Week and Addition Strategies

We have our first STAR of the Week!  The girls loved hearing about their friend's family and their likes and dislikes.  Needless to say, all of the girls are eager for their time as STAR.


We also had a special Mystery Reader today.  One of their favorite books was Little Pink Pup.  Be sure to check it out!


The girls have been working with number lines for the past two days and are becoming much more comfortable using them as another tool to help them solve addition problems.  Today the girls rotated around the room in centers, each center using a number line in a different way.  At the iPad center, the girls worked on the Mystery Numbers app.  At our second center the girls sequenced numbers and at our third center the girls solved addition problems using a number line.
