How you can help! 
 Please encourage your child to practice their addition, subtraction and multiplication facts. 
Knowing fact families with addition and subtraction like 8 + 7 = 15 so 15 - 8 = 7
Also knowing multiplication facts will help your child with division too 6 X 7 = 42 so 42 ÷ 7 = 6
Your child can practice their facts at home with online games, flashcards, and quizzes!
