Practice these words each night. I will test the students on the words on Fridays. Students need to say the words without sounding them out. They DO NOT need to spell the words. Every Night: Practice the sight words, letters and letter sounds listed on the newsletter in the “Peek at the Week.” Your child will be tested this Friday on the letters, letter sounds, and sight words listed. Until these basics have been mastered, this will be our focus for homework each night. Tuesday: Draw a picture. Include a square, a rectangle, a triangle & a circle in your picture! Wednesday: Family Night/ No Homework Thursday: Be ready to test on each letter (upper and lowercase separately), each letter sound, and all 5 sight words.
