Unit 2: Becoming Fluent in Addition & Subtraction
In this unit students will:
• cultivate an understanding of how addition and subtraction affect quantities and are related to each other
• will reinforce the multiple meanings for addition (combine, join, and count on) and subtraction (take away, remove, count back, and compare)
• further develop their understanding of the relationships between addition and subtraction
• recognize how the digits 0-9 are used in our place value system to create numbers and manipulate amounts
• continue to develop their understanding solving problems with money
• At the beginning of Unit 2, it is recommended that students practice counting money collections daily during Number Corner or as part of daily Math Maintenance in order to be prepared for the tasks. For more detailed information regarding unpacking the content standards, unpacking a task, math routines and rituals, maintenance activities and more, please refer to the grade level overview.
