MATH Tip for your 1^st grader. This will help your child as he/she progresses through school as well as in the day to day life of adulthood.

Start practicing having your child notice ways to make a ten (2+8, 6+4, 3+7; etc.). Students can use this knowledge to help know what the sum of 12 +8 because they know that 2+8 = 10. Similarly, another mental note is that 12 is 2 more from 10 so then if 8 more is added that would equal 20.

Knowing the facts of 10 will also help in subtraction. For example, 14 – 8. The number 14 is 4 from 10, so take away 4 to decompose the problem 14 – 4… and then take another 4 away to equal the difference of 6. I know this concept is difficult; however, we can begin these discussions and noticing’s. This will be what the math discussions will entail throughout the week. Starting this discussion at home will reinforce what we are learning in 1^st grade math.   

Please if any questions just email me and I will call you to explain better. :-)
