We are now into the month of April and are enjoying the first days of Spring!  Our focus in math will be on our addition and subtraction facts to 20.  It is very important that everyone continues to review the facts we have learned and to use the strategies such as "Counting On" and "Counting Back".  In Literacy we will continue with our Guided Reading sessions focusing on fluency and comprehension.  It is necessary for all students to read the books at their level that are sent home each evening!!  The best way to become a better reader is simple.....JUST READ!!  We are also working hard during our Writing Workshop sessions creating wonderful stories!  We need to focus on being able to read back what we have written :)
