Math in 1st Grade
We will spend much of the year working on 'number sense' in the first grade. This refers to the ability to understand, manipulate and work with numbers. We work on taking numbers apart and putting them together in a variety of ways, while pushing students to use most effective strategies. Addition and subtraction both in the form of story problems and number problems are used throughout the year and students are expected to be able to communicate the strategies they use to solve these problems.
In addition to number sense, first grade works on graphing and interpreting data. Though out the year we collect data in a number of ways and discuss it's importance and what it tells us. We use bar graphs, pictographs, tally charts and even Microsoft Excel.
