Addition and Subtraction

*In math, our second graders have been focusing on learning to subtract and add, especially with larger numbers.  Today we worked on using adding and subtracting with ten to help us add and subtract by nine a lot quicker.  Here are a few of the number sentences we used.

New Year, New Possibilities

As the new year begins, we all have those aspirations to become better people.  Whether its through health, wealth, family, religion or whatever areas we want to improve on, this tends to be the time of the year when our dreams of bettering ourselves starts out with the most momentum.  Yet, for some reason as life starts to take over, we fall back into the same routines.  Why is it so hard to stick to our resolutions?  As a class we discussed ways to stick to our goals for the new year.  Check out our class "kidblogs" and see what our students feel they want to do differently for the year 2012.
