1:1 Addition

image
Papa ʻEkahi used Kahoot! as a fun instructional tool to show learning of addition concepts. Questions are displayed on the screen to help review strategies and lessons they have learned. Keiki worked independently and as a team to solve problems. Players used their 1:1 devices to choose from a series of multiple choice answers.

Students used pictures, concrete objects or models to find sums. They were engaged in putting together numbers within 10 and practiced building fluency. The game is a fun way to assess the childrenʻs progress and review the essential questions for the chapter. Itʻs a win win game for everyone!

Papa `Ekahi is adding up to new math concepts!

We  have been busy learning addition concepts. Keiki solved “adding to” and “putting together” problems by using pictures, concrete objects, making a model, adding zero to a number and explored the commutative property of addition (adding in any order). They took a Pre-Assessment and Post-Assessment on-line to show their depth of knowledge. Students are now moving on to learning subtraction concepts!Kalehuawehe-Blog-Math

Geometry Performance Task

Students are getting ready for our Geometry test tomorrow! They worked in groups to make a wall using 3 dimensional blocks. 1 block needed to have a curved surface and the other block must have only flat surfaces. After building a tower they had to build 2 more towers. 3 towers need to be the same to create a wall.
