September has been an exciting month filled with Math around ISB! Students have been developing their number sense through hands on activities which allow them to explore math and develop their math communication skills and vocabulary. A highlight has been our ISB first graders who have worked hard looking for patterns to explain number relationships. First graders have built their foundation of the commutative property of addition, otherwise known as the “turn around numbers”.
