Here are some ways you can help support your child's Math learning at home.

As part of the weekly homework sheet, I will ask you to reinforce some skills we are learning at that time in the classroom.  This should take no more than 10 minutes per day.  I will usually provide something like flashcards or give an easy activity that does not require any items.  

Here are some goals for your child's learning this year:

• Count to 120

• Count beginning at any number to 120 (example start counting on from 34)
