Math- students wrote a quiz on subtraction today, the purpose of the quiz was to see where students are and what they need to study on, some were nervous how parents would react so please remind them this is to see what they need to focus studying this weekend.
Test on addition and subtraction will be Tuesday after lunch at 12:50
questions include
-lining up numbers to ass or subtract, students are having a hard time remembering to line up numbers starting with ones place

also students need to practice subtracting from 100 and 1000, this is a big challenge with regrouping
Rounding has also caused some difficulties,
practice rounding these to the nearest hundred

word problem example,
Miss LeRose is reading a book that is 192 pages long. She reads 12 pages each night. How many pages will she have left after 5 nights?
students should know to start with 12 x 5 = 60 OR 12+12+12+12+12=60
NEXT
192
– 60
——–
132
Students receive 1 mark for correct answer, 1 mark for showing work (even if they go wrong), and 1 mark for a sentence (for example Miss LeRose will have 132 pages left after 5 nights)
I will be away tomorrow, please e-mail me with any questions regarding the quiz or upcoming test
thank you
Happy Thanksgiving
Miss LeRose
