Grade 1 Number Corner Planner

YEAR: 2011-2012 MONTH: May-June

This planner uses calendar markers that are: Pre-Made X Student-Made

MONDAY / TUESDAY / WEDNESDAY / THURSDAY / FRIDAY
Notes:
You can make & pattern My Little Farm animals if doing complete Bridges curriculum or download new pre-made cal markers (missing minuend, subtrahend & addend), available to purchase or as free download at http://www.mathlearningcenter.org/store/product-6665.htm These Calendar Grid markers replace the student-made markers. Each marker features a single equation or story problem. Each day, students are challenged to solve the problem by finding the missing addend, minuend, or subtrahend
*Gathering a student sample of Friday's Figuring could involve several components one week, several others the next - useful for
report cards!
