Math
We are still working hard on addition and subtraction! We have learned so many strategies and most of us have found what strategies work best for us!
We will continue to work on mixed addition and subtraction problems and knowing what to do when we see a plus sign or a minus sign.
We have been working on collecting data and turning it into a graph! As a challenge, have your child collect data and turn it into a graph of their choice! ( We have polled our classes on favorite ice cream, favorite animals, favorite vegetables. You and your child to take a walk and collect information on what animals you see on your walk, or what types/kinds of different things you see) I cannot wait to see what everyone comes up with!
