We had such a fun week talking about 3-D shapes. I am super confident that all of the kids did great on their unit test today. I will let them know next week so they can share the news. I really enjoyed meeting with all of the parents this week. I know that we didn't get to meet with everyone as a trio, but we will get together and share what was discussed. Anyone who maybe missed yours, please email one of us to reschedule.
Next week, we will be reviewing addition and subtraction strategies. We will be working toward our goal of recalling all addition and subtraction facts up to 20. Please have students practice their facts nightly. They can do xtramath or flash cards. I will also be sending home login information for a new online math program called Sumdog. It is a more concept based program and similar to the video games that we know they enjoy. I have listed some apps and websites that students can also use for basic fact and problem solving practice.
