Online Class | Week 2 | Day 2 | Math | Subtraction

Today’s class started with a prayer. It is very important to ask for God’s guidance before starting any activity. Then the class warms up with a short math song followed by a long review of last session’s topic which was about counting numbers and addition. Those who were able to answer the questions gets to have a ‘Magaling Clap’ from the class. Then they check their homework. Some students were not able to work on their assignment though.

The main topic was about subtraction. Minuend, the bigger number, followed by the minus sign, then followed by subtrahend, the smaller number, followed by the equal sign and followed by the difference, the answer. Then, they went through an answering activity where objects were used to represent the numbers to be subtracted. They also went through the vertical and horizontal way of subtracting numbers.

When students were asked to show their answer to the camera, my kid noticed that the numbers were shown backwards, so he made an initiative to write the numbers down backwards so that when it is shown in the camera the numbers will look correct.

On Thursday, they will have a quiz. We got some reviewing to do later.
