Hello families,

 

We will be finishing up Chapter 6 next week: "Fluently Subtract within 100.” This chapter has a heavy focus on regrouping with subtraction. This is what many adults know as “Borrowing.” Typically, this strategy is confusing to kids, so students began by using models (blocks), and by subtracting a one-digit number from a two-digit number. For example, 21-6 =?.  We also learned to subtract a two-digit number from a two-digit number. For example, 21-16 =?  

 

On Monday and Tuesday, we will review subtracting a one-digit number from a two-digit number for our test on Wednesday. On Thursday, we will start Chapter 7: "Understand Place Value to 1,000". We will be working with blocks, drawings and playing games to understand this important math concept. 

 

Here is a website your child can practice with blocks.
