Math in Class

We are continuing with Two-step word problems. Students must be able to identify if they are adding or subtracting in the problem. We will test on Thursday or Friday, depending on student readiness. Please help your child by creating situations in their everyday life where they have to add or subtract to find the answer to your question.

Reading Homework (optional, but highly encouraged!!) 

**Please read with your child. Make it enjoyable and fun. You can even read to them!! 20 minutes a day is a great goal. Your student has a September reading log they can fill out to keep track of how often they are reading. They also should be bringing home 2 decodables each Friday in their yellow folders. These stories can be read and returned for class money. If they read them 3 times out loud with you, please sign it and have them bring it back. *
