Sprouting into Second

This reflection sheet can be used after reading The Math Curse aloud. Students reflect on their own experiences with math. This can be used at the beginning of the year to help students think about themselves as mathematicians as well as any time throughout the year.

This is a five in a row game for students to practice subtraction facts within 20, particularly counting on 2 to solve or counting back 2. Students in first grade need to develop fluency within 10 while students in second grade need to develop fluency within 20.
