Math Assessment
Today we completed a math assessment for September. This will inform the teachers of what we need to focus on for Grade Two review in the upcoming weeks.
Key concepts we assessed included and some strategies we will be reviewing in the upcoming weeks!
1) Knowledge of friendly numbers, (the 10's, 5's and 1's inside a number), place-value and place-value charts, (one's column, ten's column, hundred's column)
2) Double-digit addition which:
-demonstrated an understanding of mental math
-used a variety of ways of representing their understanding of mathematical processes
-showed efficiency in the choice of strategy used
-had an accurate answer
-use of an open number-line
-use of a traditional algorithm (called 'stacking;)
-use of a place-value chart
