Math Updates

We had our first complete day of Xtra Math for all students. Everyone who was here today rotated through to practice their facts for a baseline of where they are starting. I am looking forward to seeing lots of growth this year in math facts. Look for Xtra Math to be coming home as a homework assignment 1-2 times a week for practice.
In math we are working on fact families. 3,7,10 are in the same family. We practice the two addition facts first and then the two subtraction facts.
Please practice these at home! It looks like this:
3+7=10
7+3=10
10-3=7
10-7=3

  1. Thank you for creating this blog! It provides so much quick information on what our kids are doing in class. KM2 was sooooo excited about the Xtra math! She happily shared the concept with the whole family. I also wanted to thank you for the pictures. It's fun to see all the smiling faces. Keep doing what you're doing!
