Our Strategies:

How to study the BEST way?
In this chapter, your child has learned the basic addition facts up to 10. Some skills your child should practice are:
- counting on and using number bonds to add
- telling addition stories
- writing and solving addition sentences
- solving real-world problems
**Help your child to come up with their own math story problem & have them solve it** This concept can be difficult for students-make real world connections!
I have sent home a study packet in the students take home folders. Look over the lessons and problems on the page. The students can complete some of the pages that are not completed to practice their skills. Additionally, there are other resources on FSAConnect if you feel your child may need more practice. I will also be sending home a short review page on Monday that you can look over before the test!
HAPPY STUDYING! :)
Whats coming up next?
We will be learning various strategies to show and model subtraction problems.
