Curriculum
Reading/Writing/Science:The students worked really hard this week to wrap up their learning about chicks, life cycles and genetics. It was so nice of so many of you to come and join us to help them celebrate all of their hard work! Thank you!
Math:
This week, we focused on learning about place value. Students had to identify the tens and ones places as well as tell the value/worth of the digit in the tens or ones place value. We used base 10 blocks to help us with understanding place value and the difference between 10s and 1s. Next week, we will continue to review place value and also use place value to help us add within 100.

- adding and subtracting to 20 - play a board game for this
- telling time (What are the hands on the clock? How is a clock set up?)

- measuring - length and volume - have your child cook with you to practice this
