Talk with your student about the books you read. What was it about? What was your favorite part and why? What would you change in the story if you were the author? Practicing sight words will also help your student learn to read. Half of all the words we read are sight words. Learning those words is half the battle! You can download a complete list below.

Writing and Grammar
Term 1 - Handwriting and Sentences
Students need to be able to form each letter both uppercase and lowercase correctly and legibly. This means that the letters need to be written correctly on the lines and anyone else needs to be able to read what it says. We are also working on writing complete sentences when we write. Sentences begin with a capital letter, words have finger spaces between them, and a sentence ends with some type of punctuation. Punctuation could be a period, question mark, or exclamation mark. We are also working on word order when writing a sentence and making sure that our sentence makes sense. Ex: She swim can. - She can swim. Complete sentences also include using nouns, verbs, adjectives and prepositions to help our writing be more interesting.
