Welcome to Mrs. Ludwig's
Newsletter
Week of Feb. 27th- March 2nd
Up Coming Events and Reminders
I Love to Read month reading slips are due on Monday, Feb. 27th. First
graders have the goal of reading 100 minutes. Enjoy popping open a good
book and reading!
We have been practicing math facts at school and we have begun to take
timed math fact tests. We will be taking about one per week. We started
with math facts +1 and +0’s. As your child passes tests they will
progressively cover more additional math fact skills such as double facts,
making 10 (__+7=10), doubles +1, etc). Please begin practicing these math
facts with your child at home.
