Addition With Regrouping With Groups of Curious Kids


Warm up in pairs with Launch Problems to activate the math muscles.  School-wide, classes use the ICAN method:

Information, please.
Create a plan.
Act!
Now, is it correct?

Evelyn and Cassius can!


Thania and Scotty can!


Ja'niya and Japheth can!


Next comes independent problem solving...


Then pairs discuss answers and strategies.


Finally, everyone writes word problems for others to solve (and they're a lot harder than anything I give them).

Emma's Life Reflection Sheet

On the walking feild trip I learned how special plants are to the earth. I have new ideas to plant vegtables at home. I feel happy about the walking feild trip. I was excited about the ice cream!
