This unit introduces many new terms, so our spelling list this week is based on them in order that students can have some extra practice. A great way to practice these concepts at home is to have your child help with the groceries.
- Have your child choose two objects and tell how they are the same and how they are different.
- Talk about why you place particular packages together.
- Ask how many faces, edges, and corners they see for each solid.
