Our 15th unit is from 5/31/2021 to 6/30/2021; the Sugar Land Branch Junior Support Program, led by Branch’s junior leader Alvin Zhou, has continued offering free lessons to Pre-K kids. We started the Singapore Math 2A class on 4/5/2021. The class is an introductory mathematics course for 2nd graders and below. We decided to teach 40 lessons in total, which lasting from 4/5/2021 to 7/5/2021. Primary Math Book 2A teaches numbers, comparing, and place value to 100, addition and subtraction with/without renaming, measuring length in meters, centimeters, yards, feet and inches, measuring weight in kilograms, grams, pounds, ounces, multiplication, and dividing by 2 and 3. We expect that the concrete, visual approach will enable students to encounter math in a meaningful way. We wound teach three lessons each week on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
During the 3rd week of the 15th unit from 6/13/2021 to 6/19/2021, Alvin organized the meetings; meanwhile, Erin and Zarina joined as presenters. Erin taught Lesson 31 on 6/16, Zarina taught Lesson 32 on 6/18.
