Student Work- Katie Hall

This week, the students in my second grade classroom were working on 2-digit addition. This is the worksheet that they were focusing on specifically. 19 out of the 24 students finished this worksheet without issues, but there were five students who I worked with individually. This particular photo was not a student I worked with, however.

While working with one student, I had him finish the worksheet alone, and then I would work with him afterwards to help with what he could not understand. He had to use the cubes to finish this addition. He had such a difficult time, and became extremely frustrated when he would get an answer wrong. THe problem was that he was working way too fast. When I had him slow it down, he was able to use the cubes and get the correct answer. He even was able to stray away from relying on the cubes towards the end of the worksheet.
