Hey y'all! This is the final unit in the 2nd Grad Math Unit Bundle and I am so excited that this unit is finally finished! This 3-digit addition and subtraction unit is 4 weeks long and includes everything you need--including lesson plans, student direction cards, task cards, games, and recording sheets.
On each Monday, the class meets together for a whole group lesson. The first week reviews place value, comparing numbers to 1,000, and writing the numbers in standard, word, and expanded form. Weeks 2-4 cover adding and subtracting 3-digit numbers with and without regrouping.
On Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, students visit a series of stations in order to practice their new skills. My students absolutely love this time of our day. They develop independence and strengthen student discourse.
While students are at stations, I am visiting with each of them and checking for understanding. This is kind of like having individualized guided math groups spread out all over the room. But the bonus is that I can meet with any student at anytime and address misconceptions before they become ingrained.
On Fridays, we come together for another whole group lesson. We share out any Ah-ha! moments from the week and strategies we used for solving different problems. This is also the time for students to really show you what they know.
I absolutely love having math stations in our classroom and I know you will, too. The students become so much more independent with this setup and really start to own their learning. For more information on how I run math groups, you can check out this post and this post.
For your own copy of this unit, you can check it out in my Teachers Pay Teachers store here. Stay tuned for more great resources coming soon and have a wonderful week!
Stay sweet,
