The first grade is working with addition and subtraction facts 1-20. We are also looking for and creating patterns. Activities that you can do at home to help your child are:

• play board games with dice

• practice number facts with flash cards (addition and subtraction)

• estimate length, amounts, or lengths of time

• measure items in both inches and centimeters

• play dominoes

• make puzzles, build geometric shapes or designs

• practice counting from 1 to 100

• count by 10's

• count by 5's

• count by 2's

• identify patterns in the world around you

• use a non-digital clock to tell time

• count small amounts of change- pennies, nickels, dimes
