Goal Notebooks
Math
We have been working very hard on finding the missing part. We are going to continue practicing this and also practice solving story problems involving subtraction. If you go to my website, there is a page on subtraction story problems you can use for practice. The major problem with story problems is that first graders struggle with reading them, so they will need your help. :) Our learning target is: I can represent and solve problems with subtraction.
Feel free to continue reading and writing numbers up to 120 and solving simple addition problems. My website has a lot to help! Go to math and then either numbers, addition, addition story problems, subtraction, or subtraction story problems.
Writing
Also, feel free to visit my website and go to the writing tab. There are some fun games in green.
Science
Reading / Phonics
We are also going to begin working on identifying the characters in a story and the setting of the story.
Your child is now learning to say Vowel Town in order, say the sounds as I point to random places on Vowel Town, and begin spelling the sounds. This is something you can practice at home when your child brings home their Goal Notebook.
