Taking 10 minutes 2-3 times a week to play/question your child will help them become confident in 'crunching' numbers and will facilitate solving more difficult problems!
Sept 13th: After working in small groups, students came up with these answers (see initials).
Challenge: Find numbers in any literature, pamphlets or news and discuss with your child what they represent. Extra challenge: make a copy of it, send it to school with your child to show us in class!
Sept. 11th:
-Visit this site: Random Number Generator With your child, choose the range (1 to 10 or 1 to 50 etc.), set it. Choose a number, say it out loud. Generate a number. Whoever is closest wins. Talk about best numbers to choose!
-Play the Card Game: adding up to 10. Then, try this same game, adding up to 20! Remember, you can have multiple cards to score a point (example: ace + 4 + 5 = 10). The goal here is to improve your child's ability to easily add numbers!
Sept. 7th: Card Game: adding up to 10!
Find a deck of cards and play the game with Mom, Dad or a sibling. Remember, to get a point, it must add up to 10. If you have a face card, it is worth one point, a joker is worth two points!
