Hello 2019!

Dear families and friends!

Happy New Year! I hope you all enjoyed the wonderful break! I have a lot planned and I am excited for all the activities we will be doing for the rest of the year!

Home Reading Program
I sent home information about home reading in a ZipLock bag. Please do not lose this bag or anything inside of it. This is the student's responsibility to keep it safe! Put aside some time to allow your child to read to you and vice versa. When your child is reading, please make sure they are pointing to each word.

They will switch out the books every Monday. When students are ready to move up in level, I will ask them to read the book to me without assistance.

There is also a sheet with the login information for Raz-Kidz. This is an supplementary reading program that you can access online.

Reading Strategies
We will be practicing reading strategies in the classroom. Today we talked about "Look at the picture". We are using pictures to help us with words we do not know. We will also be talking about "Point to the word" and "Sound it out" this week.
