Counting to 100, Odd and Even

Lesson 1

DO NOT begin this course. This course has been replaced and will be eventually removed. Please use the NEW VERSION.

Welcome to your first day of school! I wanted to give you one important reminder before you begin. Many of your lessons below have an internet link for you to click on. When you go to the different internet pages for your lessons, please DO NOT click on anything else on that page except what the directions tell you to. DO NOT click on any advertisements or games. DO NOT click on anything that takes you to a different website. Just stay focused on your lesson and then close that window and you should be right back here for the next lesson. Okay?

Parents:

  1. If you didn’t get here through My EP Assignments, I suggest you go there and create an account.
  2. This course has an offline version and a printables workbook. Go to the course page for book links.

Please decide about buying workbooks or printing out the worksheet packets for the year. You’ll want those worksheets available when they come up in the curriculum. Scroll up above Lesson 1 to see the book options.

  2. Then you are going to practice what you know.

Lesson 25

    1. Here’s your problem for today: 2 + 3 = 5
    2. Now I want you to look at your left hand. How many fingers are on it? Five, right? Now, hold three of your fingers together with your right hand. You have two fingers free and three fingers being held. That’s two plus three equals five. Now, hold onto just two fingers. You have three fingers free and two fingers being held. That’s three plus two. So what does 3 + 2 = ? 5! You still have five fingers! It doesn’t matter which way you hold them. So, we learned that 2 + 3 = 5 AND 3 + 2 = 5.
    3. Add it to your facts list.
    4. Let’s practice. Change the first ten to a 2. Change the second ten to a 3. Do ten problems

  4. Let’s practice. Change the first ten to a three. Change the second ten to a three. Do ten problems.

Lesson 27

  1. Get out six coins (or you could use something else). Put them all together in a pile. That’s 6 + 0. Six coins plus no more coins. Move one coin off all by itself. That’s 5 coins plus 1 coin. You still have six coins, right? 5 + 1 = 6. And, if you look at it the other way it’s 1 + 5 = 6. Now move another coin to be with the one coin. Now you have a pile of 4 coins and a pile of 2 coins. That’s 4 + 2 = 6. Move one more coin so they both have three coins. That’s 3 + 3 = 6. Do you see how there is always the same number of coins? The answer is always 6. But there are lots of ways to get that answer because you can move the coins into different combinations.
  2. Now here’s your math problem to learn today. I want you to remember that 2 + 4 = 6. That means that 4 + 2 = 6 too! 2 + 4 = 6 and 4 + 2 = 6. Say it out loud, “Two plus four equals six. Four plus two equals six.”
  3. Add it to your facts list.

  4. Put away the rest.
  5. So, you should have 3 stacks of ten.
  6. 1 stack of ten is ten Legos, right? 10.
  7. 2 stacks of ten is twenty Legos, 20. Is that right? (Count if you’re not sure.)
  8. 3 stacks of ten would be thirty Legos, 30.
  9. 4 stacks of ten would be forty Legos, 40.
  10. 5 stacks of ten would be fifty, 50.
  11. Here’s your math problem of the day. I want you to remember that 2 + 5 = 7. 2 + 5 = 7 and 5 + 2 = 7. Say it out loud, “Two plus five equals seven. Five plus two equals seven.”

Lesson 87

  1. Play with fractions. Scroll down to the Interactive Fraction Maker. Put your mouse on the square to start it. Type in different numbers for the numerator (top) and denominator (bottom). You can also change what the fraction appears as. What do the pictures show?

Lesson 88

  1. See if you can figure out these fractions. 1/5 means one of the five parts.

Lesson 89

  1. Read this story about halves, thirds, fourths and fifths. Thirds are when something is divided into three parts, like 1/3. Fourths are when something is divided into four parts, like 3/4. Fifths is when something is divided into five parts, like 2/5. In math language, two fifths, 2/5, just means two of the five parts. It could mean two of the five pieces of cake, or two of the five kids are wearing hats. In math we say two fifths and write 2/5.

Subtraction

Lesson 116

  1. Get out 5 blocks or coins or something, all the same. I’m going to use blocks.
  2. You have 5 blocks. Lay them down. Pick up one in your hand. How many are laying there now? 4, of course!
  3. There are 4 down and 1 in your hand. 4 + 1 = 5. You knew that. Now we are seeing that five take away one is four. In math we say: five minus one equals four or 5 – 1 = 4
  4. This is called subtraction.
  5. Write that big word on the top of a piece of paper and write underneath it 5 – 1 = 4
  6. Now play with your blocks. If you take away 2, how many are left? If you take away 5, how many are left?

Subtraction Introduction (continued) and Fraction Review

Lesson 121

  1. When we subtract, we take away from what we already have. If you have 5 and take 0 away, you still have 5. If you have 5 and take 1 away, you have four. That’s 5 minus 1 equals 4. 5 – 1 = 4 Subtraction is the opposite of addition. If you have four and add back on one, then you have five. These facts are all relatives: 1 + 4 = 5 , 4 + 1 = 5 , 5 – 1 = 4, 5 – 4 = 1 Whenever you see a subtraction problem with the two numbers right next to each other on the number line (like 5 and 4 or 6 and 7 or 8 and 9) then the answer will be one. If you have nine candies and I take eight, then you will only have one left. If I take all nine away, you will have zero.
  2. This game has missing numbers. It might ask 4 + __ = 5 In this game you will have to think, “What plus 4 equals 5?” The answer is 1. 1 + 4 = 5 This is practice for subtraction.
  3. Choose a game from Math 1 – Addition.

Lesson 122*
