Parents are welcome to join us and help with skates and helmets. Students must have skates and a hockey/skating helmet to be on the ice. Boots are not allowed on the ice.

Literacy 

In literacy this week we are review “_es” words. These are words we add "-es" to make the words plural. When words end in the letters "s", "ch", "sh", "ss", "x", or "z" we add es.

For example, "business" becomes "businesses" and "fox" becomes "foxes".

Extra Practice.

glasses – dishes – lashes - boxes – lunches - brushes 

Heart Words (irregular words)

 who - does - said – two -once

Math: 

We will continue to review skip counting by 2’s, 5’s and 10’s.

We are also working on making or bridging to 10 to add.

For example: 8 + 5, take 2 from 5 to make 8 10 and you are left with 10 + 3 = 13, so 8 + 5 = 13.

***This is new and has been a difficult concept for students.

Extra Practice in math:

   ·        Counting money (nickels and dimes only) up to $1.00.

·        Friends of ten.

·        Doubles ( 5 + 5 = 10)

·        Doubles + 1 ( 5 + 6 = 11)

·        Subtraction within 20 (random questions)

19 – 3 = 16

15 – 7 = 8

13 – 8 = 5

17 – 9 = 8

12 – 10 = 2

9 – 5 = 4

18 – 9 = 9

14 – 6 = 8

17 – 1 = 16

12 – 8 = 4

Have a great week!
