Math
We are on Topic 9, Subtraction with regrouping. You may have learned to use the term borrowing.
I'm sending home the Topic 9 packet as a resource for you to use at home over the next 2 weeks. I suggest your child do one page, front and back, per day, just to get this concept firmly in the brain. It does not need to be returned to school.
At school, we have used our tens and ones cubes to demonstrate how the process works. If your child is still needing that visual, you can use pretzel sticks for 10 rods and cereal pieces for ones.
Reading
We will be reading "A Weed is a Flower". I love this story. George Washington Carver is such an inspiration.
The skills that we will work on for the next 2 weeks are sequencing, Purpose, predicting, fact and opinion, verb tenses, and inferring.
