Welcome to the class blog! I will use this site throughout the year to give you information about our class. If you peruse the previous entries, you will see that I provide links to sites that relate to our areas of study as well as feature special events. I also use this to showcase student work. Students and parents have the opportunity to comment on the posts as well. If you do not want to join, you can sign your message within the comment box and publish your comment as "anonymous". I ask you to be respectful of each other's feelings; please only publish positive comments.
The first site I would like to feature is CoolMath4Kids. This is a great site that offers a wide variety of activities and games. If your child is savvy with addition and subtraction facts to 18, there are areas where they can begin to work on multiplication. Subtraction Blast is a fun game that actually prepares students for multiplying. Another great area on this site is the addition area. It accommodates students still needing practice with simple facts, progressing to more advanced addition concepts. There are games to reinforce these skills. There is also a subtraction area that is set up similarly. I hope you have fun visiting this site. Please leave a comment to letting us know what you like.
PS: Last year's second graders are still welcome! There is plenty for you to do, too. :0)

cool! I'll check out sites with the boys. Thanks
Thanks for the websites, we'll check them out. Here is a site that I use to "build" practice fast fact quizzes for Brooke. http://www.mathfactcafe.com/build/
You can choose the number range as well as addition, subtraction & more. We print them out and time how long it takes to finish.
Love the blog!

Licia and I used that one a lot last year...especially when we needed practice sheets for addition and subtraction of two and three digit numbers. I am sure you will see many sheets from there soon. :0)
Glad to see comments on the blog!
