Quarter 3 Week 7

Week 25

Hello 2nd Grade Families,

This week in math we will continue to work on addition and subtraction strategies within 1,000, focusing on Partial Sums and Partial Differences as our main strategy.

The students have applied the two following strategies: Branching and Open Number Lines for  addition and subtraction.  This week they are focusing on Partial Sums and Differences.  The students should be familiar with this strategy and have applied it previously with addition and subtraction.  Here is an example of homework this week.

Partial Sums with Renaming

Example:
     2 6 4                           1.  Add the hundreds place.
    +  3 7                           2.  Add the tens place.
   2 0 0 + 0 =     2 0 0       3.  Add the ones place.
      6 0 + 3 0 =     9 0       4.  Add all partial sums.
         4 + 7 =     + 1 1      
                       200 + 100 + 1 = 301



Here is what we will be working on for homework this week:
Tuesday
Worksheet: Partial sums
Wednesday

Thursday

Due to the short week 2nd graders will not have a spelling list to work on this week.

Have a great week!!
