Ten minutes (or more!) of reading every night

I’m sure your child would love to read the book in his or her small
manila folder to you! Sight words are
fun to read together, too. Reading
together every night is VERY important.
Let’s work together to develop a love of books and reading in our
children!
School
library books are due every Wednesday.
Thank
you for checking your child’s take-home/homework folder every night and making
sure it gets back to school every day.

Sight Words
We
learn two new sight words every week in Kindergarten. We practice reading, spelling, and writing
these words every day. Here are the
sight words we have learned in class so far this year:
|
I
|
big
|
can
|
|
in
|
it
|
like
|
|
up
|
a
|
find
|
|
see
|
two
|
we
|
|
go
|
not
|
to
|
|
red
|
have
|
name
|
Please
practice these words with your child at home until he or she can read them
fluently. This can count toward your nightly reading time! When your child is able to
read all of these words to me, he or she will get a prize from the prize
box! I will update the list every
month. Thank you for your support!
