Letter to Family
Dear Family,
Our class is studying subtraction. I'd like you to do an activity with your child
while you are reading a book or watching television. Ask them to find an
example of subtraction. For example, there might be 5 people in a room
and 2 people leave, so 3 people are left. You can help by giving them some
examples that you find. After they have found an example, ask them to draw
a picture of what they saw that showed subtraction. I will have the children
share their pictures in class.
Your child needs to bring the picture to school by
