Fry Words:
You may have noticed that your child has brought home a print out of the 1st 25 fry words. We are using an amazing web site that helps us quickly quiz students on words and gives us a percentage of words correct. If the word has “no” written beside it, that means your child did not instantly recognize that word. We will review the 1st 25 words until your child reaches 92% correct. We will then move on to the next set of words. Just like multiplication and other skills, without use or review we forget. We do not want the students to forget the words, so we are reviewing. Please continue the awesome work you are doing at home. We appreciate all that you do.
Spelling Words
Our test will be Friday. Please study a few minutes each night.

Welcome Back!
Welcome back! We know the rest of the 2010-2011 school year is going to be great! Your child has grown so much over the past 5 months and has learned so much! They are now well on their way to first grade, so some of the homework may start to become harder. Please work with your child nightly to help them master the letters of the alphabet, letter sounds, writing their first and last name, recognizing colors words, writing numbers 1-100, and shapes. Please contact your child's teacher if you have questions, we would love to clarify and help you better understand how to help your child!
