We focused on these sight words this week. Each week we will learn 5 new words, plus a 'star' word, which will be a part of our 'word family' study. We will be practicing rhyming with these words(red/bed/fed). We are working on recognizing these sight words because they are words that are frequently in books and will help your child improve their reading skills. We also are practicing how to spell these words and they will be added to our class word wall.We will be using poems to teach sight words in context. We will be keeping a poetry folder at school and hopefully at some point, it can be sent back and forth, so your child can read to you at home and show you how much they've learned!
We started a project this week...A Thankful Tree. We will be adding things we are thankful for to the leaves and making a class tree. |
