In this lesson, students will be taking ownership of their own learning by making addition charts of facts that they know, and facts they need to learn. A logical progression of strategy instruction that can be used to help students become fluent with the facts is one more and two more than facts, facts with zero, doubles facts, and doubles plus one facts.

This file contains sample anchor charts to create with students. Anchor charts are to be made with students, then displayed as a classroom reference. Parents may also benefit from seeing anchor charts, as they provide a snapshot into the math class.

This super-helpful chart outlines the mental math strategies students should be exposed to through Number Talks in grades K-5.  Each strategy is linked to a video of a teacher introducing/explaining how to use that stratgy.  This chart is the perfect companion for teachers implementing Number Talks in their classrooms!

A Number Talk is a brief routine (about 10 minutes) focused around developing flexibility and fluency with numbers. Through regular opportunities to work with dot images and expressions, students develop an understanding of number relationships and structure. This supports the development of early fluency skills.

This PowerPoint contains presentation slides for daily Number Talks, as well as directions and videos for implementation. Teachers may facilitate the Number Talks on these slides, or use them to inspire their own Number Talks based on student need.

In this lesson, students build fluency with recognizing and creating representations of numbers within 100. Students deepen their place value understanding as they work with ten frame cards. There are several variations built into the lesson for number ranges and response options.

This is lesson four in a series of six lessons focused around developing a mathematical community at the beginning of the school year. While this lesson addresses standard NC.1.MD.4, its primary goal is for students to become comfortable talking with others, posing questions, and collecting data from one another. A secondary goal is to begin establishing norms for how students work together during math class.
