Math
Telling Time to the Nearest Minute
Elapsed Time (within an hour)
A.M./P.M.
We are continuing to work on the skills above and your child should be practicing daily at home as well. Please have your child tell you the time at home often, using an analog clock. Have them tell you whether the activity they're doing (eating breakfast, watching t.v., etc.) is happening in the AM or PM part of the day.
While we are working on this new unit, we will also begin practicing our multiplication fluency. Students will start taking timed multiplication tests on facts 0-10. We recommend making flash cards and using different online resources to practice, practice, practice!
