(Commutative property of addition.) To add 2 + 6 + 4, the second two numbers can be added to make a ten, so 2 + 6 + 4 = 2 + 10 = 12. (Associative property of addition.)</i></div>

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">First graders at Mcdole worked diligently in math to add two and three addends in word problems. (1.OA.1 and 1.OA.2) They even got to add money! Students solved problems that involved a menu of items to buy. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">To help practice this skill, the students in Miss Gianakakos' math class opened their own restaurants! In small groups, students created their very own restaurants. They worked together to give their restaurant a name and create a menu with 5 items and their prices. The groups used the PicCollage app to create their menu together. </span></span></div>

<br />
We have been working hard on our math skills so far in 2015 despite all of our snowy and busy days.<br />
<br />
We are currently working on a unit that is focusing on solving word problems, including those with a missing addend and some with three addends as well.<br />
<br />
This week we are focusing on some menu-type problems, where students are told what items were ordered and use a menu to find the amounts that they need to add. We are also focusing on writing the answer using the number and the units. (For example: 1+10+4=15....15 cookies).<br />
<br />
Because of the snow day on Monday of this week we will be having homework instead of Web Wednesday tomorrow. Here is an updated homework calendar for the remainder of this unit:<br />

<br /></div>
The next few weeks, we will be learning about equations and missing numbers. These are the standards we will be covering this December:<br />
<br />
1.0A.7: Understand the meaning of the equal sign, and determine if equations involving addition and subtraction are true or false. For example, which of the following equations are true or false? 6 = 6, 7 = 8 - 1, 5 + 2 = 2 + 5, 4 + 1 = 5 + 2. <br />
<br />
1.0A.8: Determine the unknown whole number in an addition or subtraction equation relating three whole numbers. For example, determine the unknown number that makes the equation true in each of the equations 8 + ? = 11, 5 + _ - 3, 6 + 6 = _. <br />

We have been reviewing terminology, remembering that a number sentence with an <b>equal sign</b> is an <b>equation</b>. An equation is true when both sides are equal. <br />
For example, is the equation 5 + 2 = 4 + 3 true? Why?<br />
<br />
First, we need to solve each side to determine if the sides are the same. We can use manipulatives, draw cubes, or use ten frames, to name a few strategies, to solve each side. <br />
<br />
We determine that the equation is true because 7 = 7. <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Another way we can look at equations being true or false is by thinking of them as a balance (or scale). Think of the way a teeter totter works. In order for both sides to be level, the numbers on each side of the center ( = sign) have to be the same. Just like an equation, a balance has to be equal on both sides. <br />

<b><span style="font-size: large;">Missing Numbers</span></b><br />
<b><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></b>
We are also learning to find the missing number to make equations true. <br />
For example, 7 + _ = 12. <br />
How can we find the answer? We may know that math fact, but if we don't, we can solve it in several ways. We might start with 7 and then count on to 12. We would then find that we've counted up 5. <br />
-We can always use the number line to get started thinking.<br />
-We can also draw it, or use ten frames to count. <br />
-We will find that the missing number is 5. <br />
<br />
-We can also use related facts to find missing numbers. If we know a fact family, it can help us find missing numbers. For example, if the equation is 9 + _ = 15, we can think of another fact we know, like 15 - 9 = _. This addition fact has the same numbers. We can figure out that the missing number is 6. The numbers 15, 9 and 6, can all be used to create a fact family: 2 addition problems and 2 subtraction problems ( 9 + 6 = 15, 6 + 9 = 15, 15- 6 = 9, 15 - 9 = 6). <br />
<br />
REMEMBER to check out the "Web Wednesday" tab on this math blog, for online activities to do. This week's Wednesday assignment is about balancing equations. Have fun!<br />
<br />
Have a wonderful and warm week!<br />

<br />
1.NBT.1: Count to 120, starting at any number less than 120. In this range, read and write numerals and represent a number of objects with a written numeral.<br />
<br />
1.NBT.2: Understand that the two digits of a two-digit number represent amounts of tens and ones. Understand the following as special cases:<br />
a. 10 can be thought of as a bundle of ten ones- called a "ten."<br />
b. The numbers from 11 to 19 are composed of a ten and one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, or nine ones.<br />
c. The numbers 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, refer to one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight or nine, tens (and 0 ones).<br />
<br />
The students have been practicing filling in missing numbers on number lines and in a sequence. They have also been working on identifying numbers by looking at base ten blocks and drawing the corresponding base ten blocks for a number. Lastly, they are identifying how many tens and how many ones are in a number and how to group ones into sets of tens.<br />
<br />
We are using some vocabulary words for base ten blocks that include calling a hundred a flat, calling a ten a long, and calling a one a cube. When students draw these they use a square to represent a flat, a straight vertical line to represent a long, and a dot to represent a cube.<br />
<br />
Here are some examples of drawing base ten blocks:<br />

<br />
The students have been working hard to grasp all of these concepts and will have a unit test this week on Thursday and Friday (10/23 and 10/24).<br />
<br />
Students will not be switching math classrooms on Wednesdays and therefore will not come home with homework on this day (unless it is a shortened week), however we will be having math next Wednesday because of Halloween on Friday. In addition, we will not be sending home math homework on Fridays.<br />
<br />
Have a great rest of your week! :)<br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">We started the year by improving upon our number sense knowledge from Kindergarten. I think it is pretty safe to say that we are 10 frame experts. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Pattern counting is also a big deal during math. This skill will help when we talk about coins, time, mental addition and subtraction and place value. 1st graders will become experts in counting by 2's, 5's and 10's. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Counting by 10's is our favorite:</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">( __+7=12). We put on our detective hats and worked hard to find the missing addend!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">1.OA.4 Understand subtraction as an unknown-addend problem.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">1.OA.8 Determine the unknown whole number in an addition or subtaction equation.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">We started our week by reviewing what an addend and a sum are. We have focused on using these vocabulary words during our math block. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Earlier in the school year, we learned that dominoes can help us with addition. If you add the dots on both sides you get the sum. We practiced using dominoes to add and we used this skill to help us find the missing addend. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Students started by drawing the known addend on one side of the domino. </span><span style="font-size: large;">Then, they counted on by added dots on the second half of the domino. They stopped counting when they reached the sum. The last step was to count up how many dots were drawn in the second half of the domino. And then...MYSTERY SOLVED! We found the missing addend. </span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Students also learned a missing addend game called "What's my number?" Two students come to the front of the room. They act as the addends. It is their job to figure out the number that is stuck to their forehead. They can only see the other addend and the sum (students at their seats write the sum of the two numbers on their white boards). </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">1.NBT.6 Solve 1 and 2 digit addition and subtraction problems using concrete models, drawings, and/or strategies (place value mats, base ten blocks).</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">1.MD.3 Tell and write time in half-hours using an analog and digital clock.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">We will also do some review of telling ten more and ten less. This skill needs to be mastered mentally, without the use of a number line/grid. Going from the 90s to 100s can be tricky (i.e. What is 10 more than 98?).</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">First Graders have been practicing their time telling skills. We've spent days learning time in many ways. One tricky part is remembering where to draw (place) the hands on the clock, and being sure to draw the hour hand shorter than the minute hand. Here are some helpful hints. </span><br />

We learned that fact families have three numbers and create two addition and two subtraction number sentences. We have also <span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">discovered that by knowing one of the addition facts, it is very easy to know the other because they are turn-around facts! We are also beginning to recognize the relationship between addition and subtraction. This aides us in two of the first grade math standards: <span style="line-height: 16px;">Represent and solve problems involving addition and subtraction and u</span><span style="line-height: 16px;">nderstand and apply properties of operations and the relationship between addition and subtraction</span></span></span></b><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">We are starting to compare numbers and objects using our "greater than and less than" symbols.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">The students are starting with basic understanding of the concept. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-size: large;">They are building the numbers that they are comparing as one of their "prove it" strategies. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"> Skip counting can be done by twos and by fives. Since we've been counting tally marks, counting by fives is a more familiar skill for the first graders. We know that counting bundles of tallies makes it simpler to count by fives. Another way we've been learning about counting by fives is by sorting groups of counters into groups of five as an easier way to count a large number of objects more quickly.</span><br />

<u>Common Core Standard</u> 1.NBT.1 Count to 120, starting at any number less than 120 and read and write numerals 0-120.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Another activity some students did was tracing their hands and labeling their fingers with "count by ones", and their palms with "county by fives". Then as a class, the students practiced counting by fives. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">We've also been perfecting our word problem solving strategies. We continue to circle the important numbers in the problem and underline important information in the question to pay attention to words/phrases like: how many are left, how many in all, and how many are there now. </span><br />

1<sup>st</sup> graders at McDole were working hard last week
on skip counting! We focused on counting by 2s and 5s. This can be a tricky
skill to master so we’ve been practicing in many different ways. We learned
songs and movements to help us skip count.<br />

We also started a routine called problem of the day.
Each day, students will have a number story to solve. Students start as math
detectives and look for the numbers, the question and the units in the number
story. Then they decide if they are using Gus the Plus or Linus the Minus.
Lastly, they solve the problem and show their thinking on their white boards. <o:p></o:p><br />

This week, a large focus of our math time was implementing our math facts program, Rocket Math! This program coincides with the first grade math standard: <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Add and subtract within 20</span></b>. Knowing their facts with automaticity will also aid in other mathematical practices such as: <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><b>Modeling with math and showing a reasonable argument for their answers</b>.</span> The students should be bringing home a folder each day with their rocket that indicates what level they are on, a practice page if they did not pass their goal, and a stapled packet of answer sheets to use at home and in class. The practice packet MUST come back to school in their folder each day so that they have it for practice time with their partner.</div>

The tests are timed, and the students are given one minute to complete as many math facts on the page as possible.

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">This past week in math, we continued to spend some time building the basics. The mathematical routines that we are spending so much time on now will build our math foundation and carry us through the year. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Here is what we worked on this week:</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;">Hopping on the number line:</span><br />
<span style="background-color: #278a9f; color: #f2f7ff; font-family: 'Coming Soon'; font-size: 13.63636302947998px; line-height: 16.363636016845703px;">*1.OA.1 - Represent and solve problems involving addition and subtraction.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">This is an essential skill and one that is trickier than you might think. We emphasize the word "hopping" because so many students forget to hop to the next number on their first move. Many students count the number they are on at "1". We use this to help with "more" and "less" problems.</span><br />

We are excited to show you all that we will accomplish and how we will learn math this year.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">The 1st grade team decided to start the year with basic number sense. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">We started our year with ten frames and how to represent numbers in many ways.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Listen to Avary's explanation on 10 Frames <a href="http://www.screenchomp.com/t/LE6jZ9PHmL4" target="_blank">HERE.</a></span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">As we continue the year, students will get to know all of the first grade teachers through our flexible math program. We will focus on the 1st Grade Common Core Standards and chronicle our CC adventures on this blog.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">As a team, we hope this is helpful to see how your child is learning new skill and how they are being presented.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">We will continue this week and next with more number sense through our 1st unit of Everyday Math. Homework will begin in a week(ish).</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">We look forward to sharing our math journey with you.</span><br />
