PhyEd today
 Math: Making a class book of subtraction equations...

New Concept: The other day we practiced using our whole/part/part
equations and used manipulatives as an subtraction strategy. Today I want
to show you another strategy. It is already one that we are very good at.
You can draw a picture to help you. Let’s say I had this problem in front
of me and I was not sure how to figure it out (5-2). I could just draw a
picture! Draw a simple picture with circles to demonstrate this problem.
Draw 5 of something simple, then cross out 2 of them.
Whole Group Explore: Today you are going to draw pictures to solve
some math equations. We will make this into another class book, so do
your best! The books will have woodland animals which means animals you
might see in the woods.
