Math: We are subtracting 2-digit numbers. We will review place value.  We will also talk about finding patterns in numbers and talking about the rule of the pattern. For example, 3, 6, 9…the rule is counting up or adding 3. Please work on finding numbers on the number chart in different ways like “What number comes after 41?” or “What numbers are in the middle of 35 and 39?” “What is 10 more or ten less than 37?” Please review with your child how to count to 120 by 1’s, 5’s and 10’s. There are also many websites to help your child review addition and subtraction. Here are a few: mathfactcafe.com, coolmath4kids.com. or aplusmath.com. Flashcards are a wonderful way to review adding and subtracting facts.
