Today we played a "game" where the children roll a pair of dice (they will play anything involving dice!) and recorded the sum of the dice dots. We observed why which sums occur most often. Ask your child why there wasn't a one on the list of possible sums on the record sheet. I also noticed this game went MUCH FASTER for those that have been playing Math Magician to help with their math fact memorization...hint, hint.
I graduated from Southwest Texas State University with a B.S. in Education. I've taught both private and public school for 20 years. I was an active neighborhood parent at Mark Twain (now my daughter is starting middle school at Pin Oak!)...and am proud to teach there, too! I am excited about providing a challenging inquiry based experience as well as creating a caring, reflective and supportive classroom community.
