In like a lamb...

Dear First Graders,

     I hope you are enjoying the warm temperature on this half day!  I can't believe it is March already!

    We kicked off this week with a mystery reader.... followed by a birthday celebration!


    I was also impressed with your addition skills in the computer lab. Have you talked to mom and dad about xtramath?  Your user names and passwords went home in January (let me know if you need another copy).  For some friends, this is a great site to work on fact fluency. Learning facts is more about frequency then length of time. The idea is to try to use the program 3-5 times a week in short, 5-10 minute blasts. It only allows you to work for a set amount of time before saying you are done for the day. This helps to make our addition facts become automatic! Here is the link to the site: https://xtramath.org/#/home/index

Bear Hugs,
