Student of the Month - Briar Bass
Please continue to listen to your child read for 20 minutes daily which will include their basal story, phonics sheet, and the highlighted sight words in random order. Work on fluency so your child will not sound out every word which will help him/her read more smoothly and have better comprehension. Don't forget to sign the reading homework chart. If your child has difficulty memorizing sight words it would be helpful to make flash cards to practice those words. Practice addtion and subtraction facts as much as possible. Flash cards are a great way to practice since your child needs to memorize the facts.
Please feel free to write a note, call the office at (601)758-4289, or email me at the school website with any questions or concerns you may have .
