READING

Students benefit from
reading
or being read to each night. In addition, students should work on
their sight words list each night until all 125 words are learned.
-
WRITING

Students are using
invented
spelling to write sentences. We are working on writing a sentence
with a captial at the beginning and correct punctuation. Help
your
child be a better writer by discussing family activities. Encourage
your
child to sequence events using words like first, next, last, or
then.
Talk with your child to help develop and increase vocabulary.
Help
your child record activities or ideas in a journal to be used for
possible
writing experiences later.
