We're Going LOOPY for Fact Families!

This week we learned about addition and subtraction fact families in 2nd grade math. A fun way to practice manipulating numbers to understand the concept of fact families was to do a math investigation with Fruit Loops! Students were given about a half cup of fruit loops, directed to sort them by color, and then grouped them in color pairs. Students then built fact families using the numbers represented by their Fruit Loops. The best part? Our math project became a yummy snack when we were all done! :)
