Always check the weekly newsletter for opportunities to reinforce your 
child's learning.  There are always several activities that your child can 
do to strengthen his/her academic skills at home.  Here is a list of 
suggested activities:

1.  Spend time listening to your child read the leveled reader that he/she
    brings home each day Monday-Thursday.  Ask questions about what your
    child read to check comprehension of the story.

2.  Read library books to them and with them.  Listening to a parent read 
    will help your child as you model expression and fluency.

3.  Talk to your child about his/her day.  Ask them questions that will 
    require more than a yes or no answer.  For example, "Tell me about the 
    best part of your day besides recess" or "Tell me something you learned
    today."

4.  Look over your child's graded papers together.  Be careful to be positive
    and encouraging, but yet clear about your expectations.  Young children  
    tend to be critical of their own work so we need to be careful about 
    adding to their need to be perfect.

5.  My weekly newsletter gives you detailed information so that you can 
    reinforce classroom learning at home (or in the car, etc.).  Relating
    lessons to the real world makes a connection that won't be forgotten.
    For example, if we are studying certain letter sounds that week and you
    are in the car, ask your child to name things he/she sees that start
    with that letter.

6.  Study the Kindergarten Sight Words listed on my website.

7.  Read over your current list of Dolch sight words.

Or, would you like to view and optionally restore one of these previous versions?
