We learned "take away" in math today. The phrase used was "fewer than." You can practice with your child by showing them a group of objects, asking them to count how many are there, then secretly taking away a few and ask your child to figure out how many you took away. They should be able to count the number of object remaining and count up to the previous number to determine how many you took away. For example, if you showed them 10 cookies and took 3 away, they would count the 7 remaining cookies and count "8, 9, 10" and be able to tell you that's 3 numbers so you took 3 away. I showed them what a "take away" number sentence looks like, so you could practice that as well (10-3=7). Students have listened to several books about life on a farm and have identified examples of onomatopoeia in stories. They're so smart!
