The main goal in math is to teach children effective mathematical problem solving.  We will use multiple teaching methods to engage the students and develop their problem solving.  We emphasize discussion through Math Talk where students will be engaged in questioning themselves and each other about their thought processes.  This allows students to create a clear understanding of math concepts and a strong foundation to build on as they grow.

-Mental math strategies

-Odd & even numbers

-Arrays

-Skip counting

-2 & 3 digit addition and subtraction
