STEP 2

  • Have children write out each problem and solution in equation form. For example, children write '2 + 5 - 3 = 4' for 'How many are 2 and 5, less 3?'

  • Assess mastery by reading aloud the listed problems and having the children mentally compute and recite the solutions.
  • If children have difficulties, work with physical objects again and then reassess.
