MATH: We just finished up Place Value. We will continue to cover this in Dragon Time, or as some know it, double dosing, but continuous help at home really helps drive home these concepts. We were working on the different number forms (standard, expanded and written) as well as the difference between the Value of a number in a certain place. (1,205,534 the value of the 5 in the hundreds place is 500 not just 5) and the actual place value itself.
This week we will be covering addition and subtraction with and without subtraction.
We are starting to really work on multiplication and making sure that they have their facts down by the end of October.
LANGUAGE ARTS:
Book report forms were sent out at the first of the month showing the requirements. It needs to be a realistic fiction (something that, although untrue, could actually happen)
With the weekly reading passages that are sent home on the back of the newsletter, please sit with your child as they read it out loud and count the words they miss and complete. It helps them see what they need to work on, as well as their progress.
The children should be reading at least 20 min a night! It really helps!
