MATH NEWS FROM MISS GARICA

Week 23 February 26th - March 1st

Happy Monday,

This week we will continue to work on telling time to the hour and half hour using analog clocks.  We focused on this concept at the end of the week last week however, still need much more practice telling time.

The first graders will also be using a 100 chart to find 10 more, 10 less and 1 more, 1 less than a given number between 1 - 100.  Remember that your child has a 100 chart in their binder along with a number line as a resource to use for their homework.
