Curriculum Notes 10 – 3 = 7 10 - 7 3 Whole – part = part 10 – 3 = 7 Math: Students will continue to explore the concept of subtraction. We will practice a variety of strategies to solve subtraction problems. Words to know: minus – the word/symbol that means to subtract. difference – the number that remains after a quantity has been subtracted; the outcome of a subtraction sentence. Subtraction Strategies: Remember…don’t drop your pencil! Continue to reinforce the dot math strategy with your child. 1. Count down. Use dots to count down if the part you are subtracting is less than 6. Example: Count Down 2. Count up. If the part you are subtracting is close to the whole, then, count up to find the difference. Make dots on the side of the problem to track the difference. Count Up Reading & Spelling: Focus: Long A (CVCe) Our focus this week is on long a. Our whole group story this week is, The Farmer in the Hat. We will discover the power of magic e this week as we begin to learn about long vowels. Grammar and Writing: We will begin to learn about and identify nouns. Please continue to review correct number and letter formation at home. Religion: We will begin to read and discuss Chapter Five together as a whole group. We will discuss how many people wanted to follow Jesus. We will also discuss that Jesus taught the Great Commandment and He taught us to love God, ourselves, and others. Social Studies: All About Thanksgiving! We will discuss what life was like for the Pilgrims. We will also compare and contrast the first Thanksgiving to today’s Thanksgiving. Science: We will continue our study of hibernation. We will explore which animals hibernate and why they do so. Each Friday afternoon, our Star Student will share an exciting science experiment with us.
