Mathematics

In Mathematics, we will continue embracing the new Mathematics 2.0 Curriculum.  We will focus on consolidating skills and providing students with numerous problem solving tasks that encourage students to interleave multiple mathematical concepts.  

• Continuing to deepen students’ understanding of and fluency with numbers up to 120 and beyond
• Consolidating skip counting skills by 2s, 5s and 10s from zero and other starting numbers (up to 120)
• Investigating strategies for addition such as counting on, friends of 10, building to the next 10, doubles and near doubles
• Investigating strategies for subtraction such as counting back, friends of 10, halves and near halves
• Developing multiplicative thinking: including building arrays to represent repeated addition, fractions, sharing and grouping.
