Homework this week is due on Friday, November 11:
**A disguise your turkey homework page was sent home with your child and is due this Friday, November 11th with the weekly homework, we will be working on a writing assignment using this project next week**
1- Math Homework:
Worksheets: Please complete every other problem (alternate between evens and odds so your child gets practice doing story problems AND “Vocabulary Check”/ “Test Practice” problems each week). If your child wants to do every problem they are certainly free to do so! 🙂 Please check your child’s answers for accuracy!
Practice your fluency timing repeatedly: “Subtracting from 0,1,2,3, and 4”. Record your best time and score each day. [By the end of first grade, the target goal is to finish all 25 problems in 1 minute and 15 seconds, with 90% accuracy (23 out of 25 problems correct).] Click here for extra timings: Fluency Timings
For extra practice, utilize any of these math-fact-activities. There is also a copy provided in your blue folder.
Helpful Hint: Use counters (pennies, buttons, macaroni, etc.) if needed to model subtraction. Count backwards when subtracting 1, 2, or 3: Start with the bigger number and count backwards (Example: 3 – 2. Snap your finger and say “3″ and count backwards 2 times: say 3 (snap)…2…1).
