Bridging home and school is very important to me. I am looking forward to conferences this week!
Reminder
After School Reading Club will not meet this week. Classes will resume on Tuesday, March 10, 2009
I will continue to engage students in meaningful reading activities this week. Focus will continue to be on phonemic awareness, word recognition, and reading fluency. Students will be expected to focus on word families and vowel patterns. They will learn decoding strategies and will practice reading leveled books. While reading, students will track words with their fingers and practice various strategies: using context and picture clues to read an unknown word, look at word families or vowel patterns within words, and skip an unknown word to the end of the sentence then go back to the beginning to read it again.
