Mathematicians at Work...

We are very lucky to have math helpers in our classroom each day. Mr. Carter (in the photo below) is a Title I math teacher who helps out in the classroom on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Mrs. Isham, a general assistant, works in our room on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday for both Math and Writing Workshop. We are so lucky to have such great helpers!
Today, Mr. Carter worked with students to help them develop strategies for calculating the total price of items at a "school store." They also figured out the difference in price between two items, determined if they had enough money to buy certain items, and more. What great math problem solving!
