We started learning about collecting information or “data”. Today, we talked about foods and animals we like and don’t like and took a vote. After everybody voted, we recorded our results using a tally! We compared the two numbers. Ms. Omoto brought in a fun “Pac Man” to help us remember that Pac Man always wants to eat “more!”. In this example, we say “9 is greater than 5”.

Division 10 worked so hard on their art projects! While learning about our families and cultures, we talked with our families about some of our favourite dishes that remind us of “home” and created these with modelling clay!

We have just finished learning our math facts to 10, and are continuing to practice our math facts to 20! “Splat Math” is a game we like to play where the green “splat” will cover some dots and we have to figure out how many the splat is covering.

Here are some questions we ask:

How many did the splat cover? How do you know? How did you count the dots?
