Homework (Jan. 8-12)

Homework this week is due on Friday, January 12:

Math Homework:  
  • Worksheets: Please complete every other problem on lesson 8, and every problem on the Chapter 4 review. 
  • Fluency: This week, we are working on “Near Doubles.  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.

     Here’s how we’re learning the strategy of “Near Doubles” in class:

    Use your doubles and add 1 (if you use the lowest addend for doubles) or subtract 1 (if you use the highest addend for doubles).

     Example: For 5 + 6, Think 5 + 5 = 10, plus 1 More… 11.   Or Think 6 + 6 = 12, minus 1 More… 11.
