First Nine Weeks Math Letter from Cobb County: 1st Grade Mathematics from Cobb County Schools First Nine Weeks Dear Parents: The objectives listed below will be used to lead your child to mastery of the concepts covered in the 1st Nine Weeks Unit of study. Graphs Organize and record data using objects Interpret the data Number Representations Sets with concrete objects/manipulatives Base ten models Pictorial drawing Writing numbers Place value Order numbers Addition and Subtraction (Facts to 10) More than/ less than Skip counting Break numbers apart Strategies for addition and subtraction Inverse relationship of addition and subtraction Compare Numbers Small sets Greater than Less than Equal to Measurement Calendar Days of week Months in a year Here are some suggestions as to what you can do at home to help your child: Help your child count sets and compare them. Take a pocketful of change and have them count how many pennies and how many dimes, nickels, or quarters you have. Then have your child compare two sets of the coins stating which set has the smallest or greatest amount. Ask your child what day of the week it is and what happens on that day. Help them to identify which day of the week they have ball practice, dance, or other events. Use cards that are numbered and have your child put the numbers in order. Use playing cards or cards numbered 1-10. Shuffle the cards and deal all of them out between two people. On the count of three each player turns over a card the person with the highest card gets to keep both cards. Here is a game that you can play with your child to help them learn addition facts: Materials: 10 pennies, beans, or other objects to use as counters. Each player starts with 5 counters. On the count of three, each player puts 1 to 5 counters on the table. Ask your child how many counters there are in all. Then have them say the sum. Then help your child tell an addition story that describes what was just done in the game. For example: I put down 1 counter and you put down 3 counters, so 1 and 3 make 4 in all. Repeat several times. Sincerely, Mrs. Hatcher
