Today I sent home the attached Math Facts page for nightly home practice.(It doesn't need to be returned). Parents can call out the facts and have your child call out the answer. Our goal is to be able to give the answer automatically, without using fingers, in three seconds. Parents can choose by row, diagonally, or whatever combination you wish.The total time expected for nightly practice is five minutes!
Other ideas for facts practice might be writing out math facts, printing out fact practice sheets from the internet for your child to complete: (Like this one: https://www.worksheetworks.com/math.html
Using apps or online mental math sites will work as well. (I put up sites continuously through the year which reflect strategies we're covering.) There are several "home" games like Yahtzee and Dominoes, which require children to add and tally. I will be sending a Math Games Baggie home tomorrow with materials needed for various card and dice games which your child has learned in class, too.

Today your child came home with a list of spelling words which we will be studying for this month. The list is glued into their agenda at the beginning of the month of October, and has a tab marking it's spot. Some ideas for home study are: writing out words once only, spelling words as they are called out, putting them on recipe cards and using them as flash cards, chanting the spelling in funny voices, and making up words that rhyme with the spelling word. If you have a wipeboard, or chalkboard, use that for a fun change. If you want to make your own Word Wall at home, go for it and send us in a picture! In order to not overwhelm your child, we study only 5 words a week. The total time spent on spelling practice each night should be around 5 minutes. Have f-u-n!
