How has adding music and drama helped your learning?

Adding music and drama does  helped my learning. and why? Because drama is fun with  word problems.  It is more fun then just sitting at the table and working. It helps me pay attention more. I hope next year my teachers could do it, too.

What have you learned this year in math?

This year in math I learned new word problems. We video recorded our word problems and acted them out. It is fun. You should  try it. There is much more that I learned this year. There’s too much to say.

Here is the chorus:

Subtract!

Take away! Compare!

Subtract!

Take away! Compare!

Take the smaller number from the bigger number.

Subtract!

Take away! Compare!

And here is my verse.

I had 15 bones

and my dog took away two.

How many were left?

It’s up to you!

Can your students tell me about some good math games that I can use with my students in Winooski?
Dear Ms. Kirsten,

I am going to tell you about a game that is called Math Blaster. It’s a good game that can help your students learn math. I have a CD of the game. These are the instructions. First, aliens take your pet, and you have to find him.  The narrator asks addition and subtraction questions. You get points, and there’s 3 levels. It a good game.
