Writing: Your child will continue writing the opinion piece regarding the activities he/she has done with his/her family
over the long weekend. They will introduce the topic they are writing about,
supply reasons for the opinion and provide some sense of closure.
Math: For this week’s math,
we will continue working with subtraction. We will also be introducing bar models. There are IXL skills I have added to the
bottom of the blog. Your child is NOT required to do them. However, it’s a
wonderful way to get some extra practice.
