Math Strategies

In Math, we have been learning about strategies that we can use to solve math tasks. We know four strategies that we have gotten really good at! They are, number line, ten frame, tens and ones, and pictures. We also talked about using the math problems efficiently. That means that if the math problem was 56+12 we wouldn't use pictures because it would take a really long time! instead, we might use the tens and ones or number line strategy.

I am going to challenge the grade ones and twos to show and explain to you at least two of these strategies. They are smart cookies so I know that this will be easy for them!
