Homework (Jan. 22-26)

Homework this week is due on Friday, January 26:

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! 
  • Word Problems: (No fluency this week)                                                                      Students have been working on reading story problems for understanding.  We have been looking for key words in story problems for hints (“in all” usually means add, “how many more” means to subtract, etc.  See below). Please help them read the problems, but let them figure out if the problem is an addition or subtraction problem.  They can act it out, draw a picture, draw a part/part/whole chart, or anything that helps them to visualize what is going on in the story. Feel free to give hints, but let them try to figure it out.  Make sure they write down the number sentence used to solve the problem and not just the answer. To help spread out the work, they could work on 2-3 problems each night.  PLEASE DO EACH PROBLEM.
