Writing
You should see us write!  We have been working very hard on writing good sentences.  The students are working on remembering a capital letter and periods at the end of their sentences.  Also we have spent a lot of time lately working on writing more than the basic “I like” sentences.  Have your child show you their writing skills at home!



Math
We have been very busy finishing up our subtraction work and beginning our work with numbers.  Subtraction has been harder than they thought and need to be reminded that the first number tells how many; the 2nd number tells how many to take away, and finally the last number tells how many are left.  Keep working on this at home.  In our new unit on numbers we are working on skip counting by 10’s to 100, beginning some counting by 2’s and 5’s also.  This can be harder so we are taking extra time to make sure we understand this concept!
