Kakooma App

 We are using a fabulous app called Kakooma that is from the Greg Tang website to practice our multiplication facts. The students enjoyed trying to improve their times while practicing their facts.

 We are grateful to Mrs. McGraw for adding this wonderful app to our ipads.

Games Galore

 My 10s group has been reviewing and exploring factors and multiples through a few great games. The students are enjoying playing against each other and testing each other's skills. 

Solving Puzzles

 

 

 In class, we worked on solving addition and subraction puzzles with different shapes. 

 The students worked together to figure out what the mystery numbers had to be for each shape.

There was lots of great discussions and problem solving.  We will have to do these again soon.

When Will We Ever Use This?

The 9th age students interviewed their parents to find out how they use math in their jobs.  From architects to designers to doctors, they learned that all jobs require math in some way.

New Year

I am looking forward to seeing everyone one on August 28th. Enjoy the remainder of your summer and remember to bring your completed math packet to school. See you soon!
