We will review, identify, write and read all 6 of the sight words from this week; give, make, new, play, say, & them. We will use our sight words to write/read them in sentences. We will recognize, write, and learn the beginning sound of the letter Oo- Ozzie Octopus. We will continue reviewing rhyming, initial, ending and middle sounds, and parts of a word with Heggerty.

Dear families,

This year, our class is excited to read with Scholastic Book Clubs! It’s a great way to build up your child’s book collection at home and help them improve their reading skills. And when you shop with Clubs, your orders earn points I can redeem for books and other classroom supplies we need.

Here’s how it works: I’ll send home flyers like these throughout the year. If you decide to place an order, you can do that through our class ordering page. Your books will arrive at school about 10 days after I submit our classroom order.

By teaming up with Scholastic, we’ll help your child become a more confident, independent reader—and we’ll build a classroom library all of my students are excited to explore!

Order due date: 09/30/25
