Welcome to 2R

Measurement:

Students will be understanding the concepts of time and organizing all of their important dates as we better understand the way a calendar works and how we can use adding and subtracting to find dates on a calendar. We will be using logical thinking to judge which non-standard units of measure will work best as we measure large and small objects around the classroom and use these measurements to compare and order things based on their overall size, length, width and height. Understanding and defining weight and mass will give students a better understanding of size and ties into our unit on Buoyancy and Boats! 

Maths: Adding and Subtracting to 18

Students will be using strategies that they learned during the number exploration unit (Number relationships to 100) to identify methods of adding and subtracting numbers to 18. They will be working with objects around the classroom, pictures and diagrams, partners and groups to solve number problems. Grade 2J students have already begun to come up with clever number stories that can be solved using number sentences and by creating fact families!  Numbers have never been so much fun!
