We will be starting our final math unit this week. It is an important one… focusing on addition and subtraction! This unit will be our main focus during the entire fourth quarter. We will work hard to learn addition and subtraction facts up to 10. At the beginning we will be using many types of objects to help us figure out the math problems. Please find ways to practice his at home and use the vocabulary: addition, subtraction, add, subtract, minus, plus, equals, sum, total, number sentence… We will be sending home a new Math newsletter soon.
