Math News

Well, we have finished up our numeration unit and are working on addition and subtraction strategies with one and two digit numbers.  It is important that your child recognize all the combinations of numbers that add up to ten (1+9, 2+8, etc) and that they know all the doubles facts (2+2, 3+3, to 20+20).  These basics are the skills that will be built on to teach them strategies to figure out tricky facts.  Please use cards, dice, mathletics, shopping trips in the store and other real math opportunities to help them see addition and subtraction as skills that are needed throughout life.

Still looking for some sunglasses for the concert next Wednesday.

Enjoy the snow!
