10/1/08 Adding Three Numbers Together

Part 1 (Daily Reading Homework): your child needs to read at least 20 minutes every night. Please record what they read, how long they read for and then initial it. Thanks!



Part 2 (Math): Today we have been learning to add three addends at a time. Example: 5+5+2=12. The main focus of the lesson was that the kids need to add two of the addends first and then add in the remaining addend. In the above example it might goes like this: “5 plus 5 is 10. Then I add 2 more and I get 12.” Or it could go: “2 plus 5 is 7. Next I’ll add the other 5 to that 7 and I’ll get 12.” Have your student complete the Do you understand section on the Guided Practice page (right under problems 3 & 4. They need to show two different ways to add 3+4+7. They need to do that again with problems 15 and 17. They need to show different ways to add three numbers together. To the right is an example of how to add 5+6+4


Part 3 (Minute Math): Night 3 of minute math. Have your child finish as many of Wednesday's problems as they can with a pen in 1 minute. Mark how many they got right in 1 minute at the bottom and then initial. Then have your child finish the unanswered questions with a pencil. This needs to be done every day but does not need to be turned in until Friday. If you have any questions about minute math please contact me.
