We are a class of 18 first graders at Norwood AvenueElementary School in Port Jefferson Station, New York. In preparation for Bunny Readers we read many bunny books. When Mrs. Silverman visited our class she showed us the project her class was doing. We really liked the mystery ink. One day while we were doing math one of the children suggested we write bunny math problems and use the mystery ink for the answers. Everyone loved the idea. We also wrote and illustrated a book that was laminated to keep in our classroom. We hope you enjoy doing our problems as much as we enjoyed writing them. After you answer the problems yourself drag and click the mouse to see if your answers are correct. |

| Standards:
This project covers New York State Standard 3 for Mathematics. The students will understand mathematics and become mathematically confident by communicating and reasoning mathematically. They will show this by creating and solving addition and subtraction story problems. Assessment: Each student prepared a math story problem of his/herchoice and a number sentence to solve their problem. Then they presented these problems to the class. We checked each other's solutions for accuracy. We also revised some problems so that none of our number sentences were the same. |
