Dear Families,
Through the Fundations Program, we will be working on learning how to
identify, write, sound out, and visually represent each letter of the
alphabet. I will update you weekly as to the letters we have done
and the ones that are coming up. Also, your child has been working
on snap words in the classroom. These are words we are learning in a
snap. They are also known as sight words. We do not sound
these words out, instead we recognize them by sight. Again, I will
update you as to the words the students are learning. They have each
received a ring of words for their book box here at school. A ring
of words will also go home shortly as part of the Home Reading
Program. We will talk more about this at the Open
House. Thank you.
