Parents
How your Kindergartener has grown in mathematical concepts by
this point in the school year! You can continue to support your child by
including him/her in everyday activities that involve counting, adding, and
subtraction. Use pennies, beans, dice, and dominoes to provide lots of
practice adding and subtracting actual objects. These activities will help
your child grasp the important concepts of composing and decomposing numbers
that lead directly to formal addition and subtraction. You'll be working
hard, but it will feel like fun to you and your child!
