Greetings everyone I hope you all had an enjoyable and restful weekend!  Our sight words this week will be over, will, do, as, him.  This week's word family is "ug".  We will also be exploring some fun tongue twistersHint of the Week: Good readers make sure that what they read makes sense and looks right.  If your child is reading to you and they read The dog was tiny and they should have read The dog was little. Say to them "That makes sense but does it look right?" If they don't correct their mistake, prompt them by covering up the word little (correct word) and say "if it was tiny (what they said) what letter do you expect to see at the beginning of that word? If they say "t" , show them the word.  Tell them to try it again.  These prompts will help them correct their mistakes more effectively.. 

Book orders are due this Fridat October 14th. Thanks, Mr. Williston

In literacy this week we will be working with words from the "op" family.  This week's sight words are : this, when, on, here, was.  This week is Fire Prevention week.  Please check your fire alarms at home to make sure they are working properly.  Mid term reports will also be going on Friday.  These reports will help provide students with an indication of their overall progress thus far in grade one.  We hope you all have a great week and let's make it a fun one!
