$$ Money $$ As part of our math skill development we will be learning about two new topics in math. The first topic is money, focusing on learning the names and value of dimes, nickels, and pennies. While students will learn the names and value of all the coins in later grades, in grade two we focus on the introductory coins: dimes, nickels, and pennies. This focus on money will help us build our number sense and patterns and relations, as we continue learn how to add and subtract by 1, 5, and 10's to 100 using money as real life tools. Ordinal Numbers The second topic of focus will be ordinal numbers. These include recognizing, writing, and speaking the following numbers: We will be learning the numerical value of these ten numbers (first to tenth), their order and position, as well as their connection to cardinal numbers. For example: first is the same as the number 1, which is the same as the word one.
We are looking forward to expaning our math number sense, patterns and relations, and reasoning skills using these numbers and tools. Comments are closed.
