Domino math
Jan. 12th, 2010 05:09 pmToday we did our second day of Domino Math. Yesterday's was pretty much straight out of MEP Year 1 lesson plan 21 (though we used bigger numbers), while today's was inspired by MEP lesson plan 22 with some Miquon thrown in. I had Erika pick out dominoes of her choice, write an addition problem with them, and show the same thing with Cuisenaire rods.

One thing I'm noticing is that there are areas where I need to start jumping over some of the MEP lesson segments. There's stuff Erika has thoroughly mastered, and just doesn't need more practice on. So I may need to start putting more energy into figuring out which parts of each lesson would be worthwhile, and which ones I should never even put out there.
Oh, and the best math moment from yesterday was when I asked her if she was done writing 6 dots, and she said something like, "no, I haven't done two threes yet." :-)
