Thursday - November 28, 2019

Math | Subtraction Video 

Subtracting with thousands and hundreds can be hard. In our school, we use Montessori materials to show our work. The video below can help parents to learn how we use manipulatives to support students' learning for math equations. Students are creating their own videos on Seesaw showing how they can solve subtraction equations using different stratategies.






Writing Process & Revision

We discussed this week about how to improve our writing skills. Students were encouraged to brainstorm their ideas before writing, take a break of a day, read and start their revisions and edit their work. Everyone received a laminated checklist (pencil below) to support them check their work with a partner and by themselves.
