Homework Offered
Here's a list of optional homework assignments for each session of a first-grade math class:

Session 1: Introduction to Numbers
- Counting Fun: Students count objects around their house (e.g., toys, books, apples) and write down the numbers.
- Odd and Even Hunt: Have students find and circle odd and even numbers in a newspaper or magazine.

Session 2: Addition within 10
- Number Hunt: Give students a list of numbers and ask them to find pairs that add up to 10 (e.g., 3 + 7, 4 + 6).
- Picture Math: Provide pictures of objects and have students create addition sentences based on the pictures (e.g., 2 apples + 3 bananas).

Session 3: Subtraction within 10
- Subtraction Stories: Have students create their own subtraction stories using everyday scenarios (e.g. If I had 8 candies and ate 
 how many candies do I have left?).
- Math Flashcards: Create simple subtraction flashcards for practice (e.g., 9 - 4, 7 - 2).

Session 4: Shapes and Geometry
- Shape Scavenger Hunt: Encourage students to find and draw objects around their house that match different shapes (e.g., a circle clock, or a square window).
- Shape Sorting: Provide a set of shape cutouts and ask students to sort them into groups based on the number of sides.

Session 5: Measurement
- Measuring Adventures: Give students a ruler or non-standard measuring tool (e.g., paperclips) and ask them to measure the length of items in their home (e.g., a book, a shoe).
- Tallest to Shortest: Have students compare the height of family members and list them from tallest to shortest.

Session 6: Place Value
- Number Building: Provide two-digit numbers (e.g., 34) and ask students to draw the tens and ones using base-ten blocks or circles and squares.

Remember to keep homework fun, age-appropriate, and not too time-consuming for first-grade students. Homework should support their learning and provide opportunities for practice without causing stress. Keep it fun! The teacher will post homework activities in the classroom each week with any PDF printables available.
1 - 2 hours per week outside of class
