READING CLASSES

We have been rotating classes for literacy so your child may be going to a different classroom for reading and writing instruction or staying with his/her homeroom teacher.  The students have done a great job switching and have adjusted very well to a new teacher, new classmates and/or both!  

A REMINDER ABOUT SNACK

The snack you send in for your child needs to be a HEALTHY, NUT-FREE and utensil - free snack! Please do not send in any fruit cups, juice boxes or other drinks, besides water.  If you are sending a snack, please pack it separately from their lunchboxes. Thank you for your cooperation.

LETTER ID and SOUNDS

Your child should be able to confidently identify (within 3 seconds, in random order): 

20-26 upper case letters    20-26 lower case letters     20 -26 letter sounds
