Second Trimester

Sight Words

We will be working on and learning how to read and write sight words quickly and accurately. 

     Here is a list of all the words we have done and some of the words we will be studying: 

can, you, see, me, I, like, he, likes, to, up, it, in, is, so, no, the, come, and, with, go, all, but, from, they, went, your, said, that, was, if, one, saw

We have been practicing how to read and write these words quickly and accurately.  Please practice them at home with your child.  We have been using whiteboards to write our words and using the SmartBoard.  If you can purchase a whiteboard to use at home I'm sure your child will really enjoy it.  Some other ways your child can practice these words are:

• Write the words in shaving cream.

• Write the words on a Magna Doodle.

• Write the words in rice or sand on a cookie sheet.

• Write the words on Post-It Notes, placing them around your house/or bedroom, using a flashlight to shine on words you designate.

• Write the words with your eyes closed then check it.

Most importantly have fun and keep the time "stress-free"!

Spelling Patterns

We have been practicing reading and writing different  spelling patterns to help your child read and write longer words. Here is  a  list of the spelling patterns we have studied thus far and some of the ones we will be working on.

-at, -an, -ap, -in, -it, -ing, -ot, -ug,
