About Magic of Math
Magic of Math is a series of math lessons and activities made by Hope King and Amy Lemons. Every activity is new to its unit, and the lessons use games, hands-on activities, mini-lessons, and interactive notebooks rather than worksheets. Some pieces need to be printed, cut, and put together, and you will need common materials like dice and manipulatives. This unit introduces subtraction. Students return to subtraction in Unit 5 and dig much deeper in Unit 10. Learn more about Magic of Math.
