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!
Fluency: This week, we are working on “Nines Pattern”. 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). Work on 1 timing each day, Monday-Thursday. Record your time and score on the paper and turn in all 4 completed timings with your math homework at the end of the week.
Helpful Hint for the “Nines Pattern”:
Look at the addend that isn’t a 9 and think “One less than”. Use the number that is “one less than” to add on to 10. (You’re making a ten in your head)
Example: 9 + 5. Look at the added that isn’t a 9 (in this case 5) and think “one less than” (4). Add 4 on to 10. 4 + 10 = 14
