Lesson Plans
This week students will solve problems with addition and subtraction.
- Students develop their understanding of addition and subtraction situations within 100 to solve problems. Students use strategies involving situations of adding to, taking from, putting together, taking apart, and comparing unknowns in different positions. Students will find missing addends; decompose numbers to make adding easier and practice adding one digit and two-digit whole numbers. Students will represent situations with equations.
