Math, Math, and more Math

There is a website we use in class that is great for math review at home. It will allow your child to answer 20 questions free per day and it is divided by grade level and topic. Since we are studying money, the money section would be great to work in! The website is www.ixl.com. We are also working on the special sounds "th" and "oo" in phonics.

Sh.....Quiet

This week we are learning the special sound "sh". This tends to be an easy sound for kids because they have often heard it! A fun way to practice this sound is to play a game with your child where they can "sh" you when you are talking. This gives them a lot of practice! In math, we are still working on the larger numbers.

"ck" like a Truck

This week we are leaning about the special sound "ck." An easy way to reinforce this concept is to look for signs around town like "No Trucks" or "Truck Stop" or "Snacks." We are continuing our study of the numbers 11-19 in math. Don't forget: next week we begin with our Fridays off and we will not be making up any of the snow days.
