Bug Week (Part Two)
This week we will work on subtraction and make a matching quiz for the rest of the class!
During your child's 2 hours (or more) of work on Math this week, please have your child:
If time permits, you could have your child:
If you're needing reminders about different strategies we've worked on in class for two-digit addition and subtraction, you can check out this video.
During your child's 2 hours (or more) of work on Math this week, please have your child:
- Complete the two numeracy assignments for this week
- Work through the video mini lessons below
- Work through the word problems and math discussion prompts
- You do not need to send me evidence of all the activities, just the two assignments
If time permits, you could have your child:
- Complete some of the worksheets (either the grade level ones, more challenging, or less challenging)
- Play the games for this week (or previous weeks)
- Practice their addition and subtraction skills using the worksheets or games in the basic facts section below

Numeracy Assignments for Week 12
To be submitted to Mrs. Barker by the end of the week
Assignment 1: Subtraction Square
- Complete a Subtraction Square using numbers of your choosing and the directions or video below
- Print off this blank Subtraction Square worksheet or draw your own on a piece of paper (it is also on Seesaw)
Assignment 2: Match It Math
- Create a matching quiz for your classmates to complete (I will add it to Seesaw Activities so they can try it themselves!)
- One one side of the paper, create a column of at least 4 math questions, patterns, or equations
- It could be an equation like 44-29
- It could be a greater than or less than statement like >83
- It could be a skip counting pattern like 55, 50, ___
- It could be a description of the number like has 5 tens, is odd, or the digital root is 7
- On the other side, in a jumbled up order, write the answer (which will likely be a number)
- Take a picture of your matching activity, and then create an answer key that I can show to the class later, after they've completed your matching activity
- See the example below

Math Worksheets
Click here to download the different worksheets for this week. If you have access to a printer, you can print them off, but if you don't your child can answer the questions on their own piece of paper.
All of the worksheets are also available on Seesaw Class if it's easier for your child to complete them there.
If your child is finding the worksheets much too challenging or much too easy, there are more or less challenging worksheets at the bottom of this week's activities (further down this page).
My intention is not for your child to finish all of these worksheets, but to use these to supplement the mini-lessons, word problems, and games and provide some extra practice for your child. Please don't feel pressured to have your child complete all eight!

Video Mini-Lessons
Word Problems
Click through the presentation below to view the question and then view the answer (the students should be familiar with this format from when we answer these problems in class).
Math Discussion Prompts
This slideshow has a collection of prompts that can inspire mathematical discussions that you and your children can have before bed, at dinner, or anytime. Each prompt shows you and your child a problem.
Sometimes there is one right answer and sometimes there are many right answers. The purpose of each question is to generate a discussion about how you determined an answer. If you find one answer, try to find another.

Game
See the rules below to practice adding and subtracting. You can check out the games from previous weeks on those math pages as well!
Close to 100 (2-3 player game)
Materials: Uno Numeral Cards (0-9) and Wild cards (at least 4)
Close to 100 (2-3 player game)
Materials: Uno Numeral Cards (0-9) and Wild cards (at least 4)
- Shuffle cards and deal out 6 to each player. Players use four of their cards to create two two-digit numbers. For example, a 7 and 6 could be 76 or 67.
- Wild Cards can be used as any numeral (0-9).
- The goal is to create 2 two-digit numbers that add up to a sum that is close to 100. Once players figure out their sum, they subtract their number from 100 (see example above). The player with the lowest score wins the round!
- For the next round, players put the cards they used in a discard pile and take four different cards. When finished playing, players add up their score for each round: lowest score wins!
Basic Facts Practice
Click here to download this week's basic facts sheets to practice our fact fluency. Our goal when we work on these is to get as many does as we can, and to try to get them done a tiny bit faster each time we practice. I usually give them 10 minutes and then we stop, but because students will be doing them at home you could use a stopwatch and help your chid time how long it takes to complete all the questions.
If you do not have a printer you could write out one column of equations for your child or read the equations to them and have them tell you the answers.
Below the sheets are some links to games that would also help your child gain automaticity in calculating their basic facts if that is a way to practice that works well for your child.

Book and Activities (Optional)
Click on the book Family Fun Day on the right, and read it with your child. (Click here to access a PDF of the book if you can't read it online.)
As you read, encourage your child to:
Choose 1-3 of the following activities to work on with your child Try the online Model the Number by clicking here Get to 100! Play a game of “Get to 100!” on a hundred chart. Roll a number cube twice to make a 2-digit number, and place your counter on that space. For example, if you roll a 2 and a 6, you can make either 26 or 62, and then place your counter on whichever of these 2-digit numbers you decide on. Use the hundred chart to figure out how many more you need to get all the way to 100. Write a number sentence to match that fact, if you can! |
Will We Get There?
You can play this game on the bus, at the soccer field, while waiting in a line, or going for a walk. Pick a number between 30 and 50. Next, pick either 2, 5, 10, or 25 as a skip-counting number. Ask: Will we get to ____ if we count by (2s, 5s, 10s, 25s)? Skip-count and see! |
