I had already done the manipulatives, and they still weren't getting it. The card over the same units will be my next try. I had honestly RUN OUT of ideas!

My group thinks when they see more they add just because they have seen it so much already, and it was add in those situations. Any suggestions for explicit language to separate the 2 problem types?

I also...My firsties always struggle with this too. I also do concrete examples with manipulatives or draw pictures when I can't. I have them line up the two groups and I rephrase the question at first to "How many extras are there?" I teach my students to take the partners away. That shows how many extras are left and then I restate the original question as intended and they give me the answer. We go over this several times and then I slowly stop rephrasing the questions to where they knwo what I'm asking when I say "How many more ____ does ______ have than ______?" We also switch it to how many fewer (or at least our program does- we use Scott Foresman). Is this okay? What do you think? I love your cards too!!<br />Shibahn<br />www.landoflearning.wordpress.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-898856958179339888.post-15599207335542114102012-11-17T21:12:01.669-06:002012-11-17T21:12:01.669-06:00You're welcome, Su Anna!
