Math
study 10 facts
1+9=10, 2+8=10, 3+7=10, 4+6=10, 5+5=10, 6+4=10, 7+3=10, 8+2=10, 9+1=10
It is very important that students study and practice these facts. They should be memorized. They will be needed for mental math. If they are stopping to add these on their fingers they will need more than the alotted class time to finish their work.

Several students are out of duo-tangs and tablets we will be using more throughout the year. One of the important skills we work on in the elementary grades is organization, a place for everything and everything in it's place. I know the children have a lot to talk about in the evenings and school supplies are probably not very high on that priority list.
