Monday!

Today was a great day!  We worked on math number bonds!  The students are doing a great job figuring out that together two numbers make a different number.  As you can see below, the two lines point to the number that they make together.  This is to show that two numbers together make a different number.  Please practice this with your child at home and help them to see that the two lines point to the number they make together.  The number bond can be rotated any way, so it is important for students to be able to read the bond anyway.

This week is our review week for the letters U, K, L, and B!  Our sight words we are reviewing are: said, little, here and was.  Please practice these words at home with both a capital letter and lowercase at the beginning of the word so they can read it either way.  We had a math hunt around the room looking for real objects that have a curve or a corner and an edge.  We are beginning our shapes unit, in addition to our number bond unit!  The students loved looking around the room to see what had a curve or what had an edge and corner.   You could play this at home, you will be surprised with what they find because they were really great "mathematician detectives" today!  We finished with a really fun book "Let's Go Froggy!"

Have a great night!
