We are now more than halfway through the year! Wow! We are now officially getting ready for first grade. A few things I would like for you to make sure your child is doing while he/she reads:
-Tracking the words (pointing to each word with your finger as you read)
- Reading with expression (I'm noticing many students reading like "robots"!!)
- Sounding out words they don't know (don't read the word for your child)
Ask your child comprehension questions while they are reading. Some examples: "What do you think is going to happen next? Who are the characters in the story? What is the setting? And so on...
Please make sure to send back the books that have been at home for a while! I cannot send a new book home until the old one is returned!
