Hello!
This will be a short post for a short week. MATH: There is no math homework listed for this week, however I do suggest that you use math flashcards to practice math facts. As I stated in earlier blogs, you can purchase flashcards at Dollar Tree or you can make them on index cards. MATH FACT MEMORY GAME: When we come back to school in January we will be working on graphs and then we will be moving into addition and subtraction within 40. One of the skills that will really help when adding and subtracting through 40 is knowing the basic addition and subtraction math facts through 10. You can practice those math facts by playing a memory game. Write the facts on some cards, the answers on other cards, mix them up, place them face down and play a memory game. Not only will your child be able to practice the math facts, but they will also have to remember where the answer and the rest of the equation is placed. When your child becomes fluent with the math facts through 10 you can add the facts through 12, then 20. PENCIL BAGS: I just wanted to give you a head's up and let you know that many of the students' well-used pencil bags are falling apart. The bags that have the heavy duty metal zippers are holding up quite well. The bags that have the plastic slide zippers are falling apart and no longer zip. SPALDING: We have ten words for this week. We learned the ten new words today. We will review the words tomorrow and the spelling test will be on Wednesday. LITERATURE: Frog and Toad All Year PROJECT WEEK: The first round of information about project week will be sent home Tuesday. Your child has been randomly assigned a specific body system. The assignment is stapled to the note which will be in your child's red homework folder. More information will be sent home when we return to school in January. Enjoy your break!
