Math

We have been working on double digit subtraction with un-grouping (borrowing). Many students (really all of them) could use practice borrowing and knowing when they don't have to borrow. Please continue to work with your child on subtraction, as well as time and money. I appreciate your continued support! Your students really are doing SO well this year-- you should be SO proud!

**There are TONS of fun Math games on this blog-- see the tab at the top of the page labeled" "Math".
