Next week we will have fun with eggs! Students will also continue working on “Step Up to 1st Grade” in math and practice fluency. We will be practicing adding and subtracting fluently within 5. This is a very important standard, since they will be expected to add and subtract facts within 5 quickly/from memory in first grade. Practicing this at home will be very beneficial and help build your child’s confidence. We will also be starting our ABC Counting to the End of Kindergarten on Thursday, April 18th. The information for this will be sent home soon. Please continue reading and writing with your child at home. Below is an overview of what we will be learning about next week.
