 Chapter 3: How Do I Develop Specific Strategies inwards the K-2 Classroom?
 Now that nosotros know what a pose out utter is in addition to how to create for them, it is fourth dimension to dig inwards to the specifics of using pose out talks inwards the K-2 classroom.  Here are the 4 goals for K-2 pose out talks.
 Developing Number Sens
 This i gets covered past times almost every pose out talk.  The whole procedure of sharing  and comparison solutions in addition to deciding if they are reasonable develops pose out sense.  Since pose out feel is the foundation for conceptual agreement of all mathematics its importance tin non endure overemphasized.  Knowing if a solution is reasonable should non endure taught separately inwards an estimation unit of measurement but should rather endure purpose of everyday mathematics instruction.  
 Developing Fluency amongst Small Numbers
Not developing fluency amongst pocket-size numbers is i of the biggest obstacles I detect kids who care inwards math face.  I volition oftentimes endure asked to locomote amongst a instant or 3rd grader who is struggling in addition to much of it tin endure traced dorsum to non having fluency amongst pocket-size numbers.  If kids don't acquire fluency at this level, they tin non prepare fluency amongst larger numbers or other operations.  "Fluency is knowing how a pose out tin endure composed in addition to decomposed in addition to using that data to endure flexible in addition to efficient amongst solving problems." Subitizing
 Subitizing tin endure i of the most fun things for kids (and adults!) to practice.  There are so many engaging ways to hand kids a adventure to subitize.  If y'all are novel to the view of subizing y'all tin read to a greater extent than close it here or depository fiscal establishment gibe out my favorite subizing app.  
 Making Tens
 "Making groups of 10 provides a link to developing in addition to agreement house value in addition to our organisation of tens."  Kids demand lots of opportunities to practise grouping things into tens.  In my school, nosotros are large fans of 10 frames in addition to using Counting in addition to Estimating Routines to assistance kids intend inwards tens.  
 Models in addition to Tools
 Here is a brusk listing of models that should endure available in addition to used inwards every K-2 classroom
  - Dot images
  - Rekenreks (number rack)
  - Five, Ten in addition to Twenty Frames
  - Number Lines
  - Hundred Chart
  I am happy to nation that nosotros bring all of the higher upward models at out students' fingertips.  We produce a slight variation on the pose out occupation inwards K+1 in addition to utilisation a pose out path.  Stay tuned for a futurity weblog postal service close the divergence betwixt a pose out occupation in addition to a pose out path in addition to what the query says close introducing pose out lines to early. 
 Using Real Life Contexts
 Math is a purpose of existent life in addition to it is our project to assistance kids run across that.  Providing them amongst a context is at the view of helping kids run across why learning math is important.  It helps kids intend of mental images in addition to evaluate the reasonableness of the answers.  Math should non endure something y'all are taught amongst naked numbers in addition to so asked to practise inwards a context.  Give kids a contextual occupation in addition to allow them prepare an agreement of the mathematics.  If y'all desire to read a lot to a greater extent than close why this is important, depository fiscal establishment gibe out our Children's Mathematics Book Study.  
   Looking forwards to hearing your thoughts in addition to ideas close Chapter 3!
