Jumping Through January

This month, we are learning our letter sounds and how to use them when we read. Students are blending sounds to read 3-letter words(consonant-vowel-consonant) like big and man. After we read a book, we sequence the story, and talk about the order of events.
What's a great way to help your child become a better reader? Read to him or her! Reading aloud to your child while they listen can help them absorb the story. Asking questions about the pictures can build comprehension. We hope to see you at our Smyrna reading night on January 29th! Your family can listen to teachers as they read aloud from books that teach children about the 7 habits of happy kids!

Students made sound collages using pictures and letters from magazines.
