Today was mostly about Math and making sure Babe fully understands subtraction and how to pull a subtraction sentence out of a word problem.
For the most part, Babe fully understands subtraction and can do it in her head. Quickly. I'm having an issue with figuring out if one of the tactics Calvert has of teaching subtraction is necessary for Babe to know, since she is having a hard time figuring out this part-part-total chart thing when it pertains to a subtraction word problem. So yes, she was having a few issues with worksheets today. BUT, later on in the day, I orally read her the word problems and she was able to tell me each answer within a minute.
So no, I'm not worried about Babe and her subtraction skills. But skipping this might be an issue later on.
Off to do some research!
Field trip tomorrow! Following her Chapter 4 test, of course!
