Kindergarteners

In Kindergarten, North students have worked hard developing their math skills this year! They are working on measuring, number sense, ABC patterns, addition and subtraction. They spent a good portion of the year working on number sense and the understanding of quantities with numbers. Now, students are applying their knowledge to break up numbers into parts. We are also practicing teamwork with partners. We love to do hands-on activities that allow us to move items around to build the conceptual understanding of various numbers.
