First Grade Math with Confidence Instructor Guide
Comprehensive coverage of all essential first grade math topics
With this scripted, open-and-go program, parents can help their children master all the concepts typically covered in first grade:
- counting, comparing, and writing numbers to 100
- addition and subtraction facts to 20
- addition and subtraction word problems
- beginning place value and mental math
- shapes, money, time, and measurements
Your student will develop both strong number sense and a positive attitude towards math with fun activities like Addition Bingo, Pretend Store, and Measurement Scavenger Hunt. All you’ll need are this Instructor Guide, the Student Workbook, and simple household or classroom items (like play money, pattern blocks, objects to count, and a ruler) to make math come alive for your student.
All student practice pages (and answers) are found in the colorful, easy-to-use Student Workbook.
Features:
- Short, scripted, hands-on, and developmentally-appropriate lessons
- Clear goals at the start of each lesson to tell you exactly what you’re trying to accomplish
- Explanatory notes teach you more deeply how children learn math, equipping you for developmentally-appropriate teaching
- Checkpoints at the end of each unit give specific guidance on whether to do more review or move on
- Games, movement, and pretend activities to make math fun
- Delightful, optional weekly enrichment lessons, with picture book recommendations and real-life math extension activities
- Memory work and daily review to ensure children retain what they’ve learned and master essential skills
Available Formats
