Have a look at out addition pretest. It is important that the children begin to put their numeracy thinking into words because ultimately, words are our thinking tools.
We will be finishing writing and working on understanding the questions on the pretest next week. So far, I am impressed by the high quality thinking that is going on in room 207! Next weekend, I will blog about how to answer the questions on the test. In the meantime, it would be great if parents could puzzle over the answers with their children - not to test their abilities, but to get some deep thinking discussion going. Have fun with it. After all, fun is what math is all about!
