Math:
This week we will continue to grow with our understanding of numbers to 120 and beyond. 
  • Fact Families (2, 5, 7) 2 +5 = 7, 5 +2 = 7, 7 - 2 = 5, 7 - 5 = 2
  • Introduce adding using doubles, doubles + one, and making ten
  • Adding and subtracting with multiples of 10 with 100 chart ( 58 + 30 = 88, 94 - 50 = 44)
  • Solving addition and subtraction with missing numbers ( 5 + ? = 12, 18 - ? = 12)
Science:
We are learning more about what animals need to survive. In our reading, we are learning more about habitats (forest, grassland, desert, water).

Leader in Me:
We are setting goals as we prepare for conferences at the end of the month. We are learning that having a goal is not just a wish. What actions are we going to take to help us reach our goals?
