1- Math Homework: Please check your child’s answers for accuracy!
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! 🙂
Practice your fluency timing repeatedly: “Subtracting From 10”. 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 Facts Activities. There is also a copy provided in your blue folder.
Helpful Hint: Count backwards when subtracting 1, 2, or 3: Start with the bigger number and count backwards (Example: 8 – 3. Snap your finger and say “8” and count backwards 3 times: say 8 (snap)…7…6…5). For numbers close to each other on the number line (i.e. 9-7), picture how close they are on the number line (i.e. 9 and 7 are 2 “frog hops” away from each other). Some facts just need to be memorized!
