Hope you enjoyed the weekend! Only 7 more weeks of Kindergarten!! With that being said, our biggest push is for those reading below grade level. Reading and re-reading at home is going to make the biggest difference for these kiddos along with daily practice of their sight word cards. I can not stress this enough. It needs to happen EVERYDAY. Our goal is a level 5 or higher by the end of kindergarten. You can look on the back of your child's guided reading books to see their instructional level. Beginning this week, I am going to leave the guided reading books we have read each day in your child's book bag so they can not only read their new book of the day, but also re read their old books we have read this week. I will return all the books on Friday and start over the following week. Keep in mind that lost books must be replaced and the cost of Cram's guided reading books is 10$/book. If you do not wish for your child to have more than 1 book at a time, just let me know via a private message. Thanks for your support and feel free to contact me if you have questions.
Our ducks are set to hatch on May 2nd!
