Language Arts

At home, ask your child to point out things around your house and label them. Maybe have them draw a diagram of an object to practice their nonfiction skills.

Math

What are we learning?

Home/School Connection

At home, ask your child to make multiple groups of objects, and then explain the multiplication or division equation for it. These objects can be buttons, spoons, shoes, or toys, etc. For example, I have 4 groups of 3 toy cars. So, I have 4 times 3, which is 12.

At home, have your child find a book on MyOn, or at the local library, on Ancient Egypt and ask them 3 things they learned about Egyptian civilization.
