Math Practice

Here's a website I found with FREE printable math flashcards:

We are just wrapping up our unit on adding sums up to 12 and will begin a unit on subtraction with differences up to 12.  We will continue to build on what we know and work our way up to sums and differences to 18 in the coming months.

Your children KNOW how to add and subtract, so now we are working on getting quicker and learning strategies to do this.  Primarily we have focused on knowing:
Adding and subtracting with 0, 1, and 2
Doubles
Near Doubles (Doubles plus or minus 1)
Totals of Ten
Near totals of ten (plus or minus 1)
Putting the big number in your head and counting up or down

This week I am also sending information home on how to log into IXL.com to get additional math practice.  Here's the link:
