The kindergarten students at C-FG are fantastic mathematicians! They have learned how to add numbers together and create addition equations! The students have even learned about the commutative property of addition! WOW! A few weeks ago, Ms. Whitaker and Mrs. Burcham's kindergarten students were learning how to make 7 using marshmallows and saltine crackers. Check out the pictures below to see the learning that was taking place! Thank you Mrs. Whitaker and Mrs. Burcham for inviting me to see this awesome whole group lesson!
