Grade Two Math "Home Connection" Activity

Posted: April 18, 2011

Today in Math, students looked for information in a story problem to subtract a one-digit number from a two-digit number, using their own strategies (hundreths chart, ten frames, etc.)   Activity: Ask your child to solve the following problem:   The teacher hid 25 Easter eggs in the classroom. Sam found 7. How many Easter eggs did the rest of the class find?   Work with your child to create and solve other story problems using subtraction. Have fun!
