Kindergarten News for the week of April 11th
Next week in Phonics we will learn the digraph ck as in duck. Show & Tell can be any item that has the digraph ck as part of the word (for example; truck, black, chicken, etc…). Please send it on Thursday. Our next sound will be sh as in shark. Please continue to practice the word lists and the take home readers for fluency! You can also continue to help your child practice writing words on their own for a time limit of 10 minutes. You can give them hints while they are working, ex. Yes, no, mom, dad, up etc.
In reading this week we will be reading a story called Max Takes the Train. This story has the familiar character Max from the Max and Ruby series by Rosemary Wells.
