Homework
Your child will be taking home a reading book every night. Please allow a few minutes each night for your child to read to you. They will also have a cut up sentence that they have practiced during the day as well. At first this might seem like a challenge, but please stick with it and encourage your child. Things will get better, I guarantee it! Return the book each day in the colorful bag that has been provided for your child.
I have sent home Sight Words Level 1 for all students to practice. Each student has a little pocket folder to help with learning. One side is labeled "Words I Know" and the other is labeled "Words I Almost Know". These are tricky words, but once your child gets the hang of it, things will get easier and mastery will take over.
Question-What if my child doesn't finish the book?
Answer-Return the book. Chances are they will want to finish the book, and he or she will have the opportunity to check it out again at a later date.
Remember to return all books. There is a five dollar replacement fee for books that have been lost or damaged.
