I will continue to pull some students one on one to work with the K-Pals intervention. It is a series of learning games that promote letter recognition, rhyming, and beginning sounds.

In addition to -all, students will learn -am and -an. The trick words for this week are -from, -or and -have. The test will be given on Friday.
