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 help your child read the directions/example problems and allow them to talk about the problems as they figure out the answers. - Fluency Timings: This week, we are continuing to work on “Count Back 1, 2, or 3 continued” (counting back from the bigger numbers: #11-20). With your timing in the plastic sheet protector (included in your blue folder), use a dry-erase marker to practice. When you’re ready, have a parent time you while you complete all 20 problems with pencil (write directly on the paper this time). Record your time and score on the paper and turn in all 3 completed timings with your math homework at the end of the week. [Emphasize improvement on personal time, rather than finishing within a minute.]
Helpful Hint: Here’s how we’re learning to “count back” in class: Start with the bigger number and count back.
Example: 18 – 2. Snap your finger (or clap) and say “18” then count back 2: say “18” (with a snap)…”17” (hold up 1 finger)…”16” (hold up 2 fingers).
**LANGUAGE ARTS HOMEWORK**
1- Daily Reading Fluency (available in the Blue Homework folders on Mondays). Please complete both sides of the Leveled Daily Reading Fluency assignment.
