Raz-Kids computer reading program coming home today.-We met with our Buddies on Thursday and they helped us get logged onto computers and set up to use the reading program Raz Kids at school. We had to wait until all the accounts were up and running before we sent home.  Please check your child's folder to see how you can log in at home and use the program on your own time.

-Today, we started a new word family..."at" family.  Ask your child to share all the "at" words they made.

Home Reading is coming home today.  Please read with your child every night.  At the beginning we suggest keeping the book for a couple of nights.  Please fill out log book with your child and return the book and bag to be exchanged at school.  Thank you for keeping everything together and sealed in the home reading bag.  Please ask your child to show you how to do a picture walk before reading.
