Time is flying by and we are busy consolidating our learning and working hard on Finding the Rule and using that rule to solve missing numbers. Using a number grid or number line is a great way to check that the students have got the correct answer. They can also use these clues to solve the problems and we encourage them to do so.
We have been introduced to simple elapsed time problems and have been using clocks to solve these problems.
We are completing the Unit 7 assessment at the beginning of the next week and then will move onto Unit 8. We will be working with shapes, talking about attributes and also making shapes from shapes. Please talk to your child about shapes that they can see around them. Fractions will be revisited and the words half and fourth should be recognized by the children.
Keep memorizing those number bonds as it speeds up solving problems
