On this page, Megan is introduced for the first time to multiplication. Well not truly. I have discussed this orally with her before now.  But, now its on paper.  She is given 3 times 2 and 4 times 2. I walk her through this saying this means 3 two times or 6 (she comes up with the answer).  

On this page, Megan is introduced to skip counting as a pre-curser to basic multiplication of singe digits. She does problems like 1, 1+1, 1+1+1 and 3, 3+3 , 3+3+3, 3+3+3+3 . This is helping her see the value of knowing how to skip count by 2,3, 4, 5's, etc. 

On page 91, Megan has to do addition with Math-u-see blocks, adding two to various numbers. She has to count the number of blocks, color them the right color, Do the addition and then draw a line to the answer on the right .   On page 94, Megan has to add 2 to various number and do adding in the 10s and 100s place value adding a value having 2, like 20 + 60.  Then, Megan had to do addition problems having to do with adding 2 to a number.  She is good at these.
