Weekly Update

Dear Families, 
We hope you all had a rejuvenating break and ready to return tomorrow, Monday, February 28th. It is hard to believe we will be springing into March this week. A few updates about upcoming events at Molly Stark Elementary School. 
Things to Remember This Week
2/28 Willowbrook Community Building -Family Connection/Game Fun -3:30-5:30 pm- This is offered to all our Molly Stark families.

This Thursday- Math Family Night for 1st and 2nd-grade families
Go Fish with A Twist
https://svsu.zoom.us/j/6424389734
Meeting ID: 642 438 9734 
 Materials Needed:
Deck of cards (remove Jacks, Queens, Kings, and Jokers)
Paper and pencil (If you would like to write number sentences down)
How to play:
Dealer gives 5 cards per player. Players look at their cards, holding them or putting them face up. Leftover cards are spread in a pile face down in front of all players.
The player who goes first will ask another player if they have a number that can make a ten with one of their cards. “Do you have a 3 to go with my 7 to make a 10?”
If they do, they take the card and put it together as a pair in front of them. If the player asked does not have a card, they say go fish. The player asking will pick up a card. If they pick up the card and it is what they were asking for, they can put the pair in front of them. The turn then passes to the next player.
Game Options:
You can write the number sentence for 10 that your cards make.
You can play with multiple cards and make groups of 20. If you wish to play this way, each player would start with 10 cards. Cards should be laid face up for this way of playing.
Some of the leftover cards may be face up, encouraging the making of a 10.
