Weekly Math Facts

We will learn a set of math facts every week. For success in math in first grade and beyond, your child should have a solid foundation of their math facts. Your child is tested on facts through 12 (as part of their grade) near Christmas, then again at the end of the year. We begin with simple facts, and then move into the harder facts. We do practice these during the school day. However; your child will grasp the facts quicker if you’re practicing at home. We will begin with doubles. We will do this set for one more week.
