Reading

     The students are continuing to work on blending skills and reading some words.  For example we are blending the sounds ca, co, ga, ac, oc, da, and then thinking of words that begin with your sounds.  We have also been reading the words odd, dog, Doc, and dad.  This is very exciting to hear all the students blending the sounds together.  Some of the students have already been reading and this is still an important skill to keep practicing.  Next week we will read through a short book together and then with partners.  You can work at home with your child on blending sounds and reading CVC words (consonant, vowel, consonant).

     We are also trying to create a photostory.  The students have all drawn their pictures and written their sentences.  I am working on getting them all scanned and then we will be able to start adding their voices to go along with the pages of the story.  I am very excited about this!

     Don't forget about our Thanksgiving feast next Tuesday.  I hope to see everyone there.
