Wow, August 1st Already?

Summer sure is flying by!  I hope you all have been enjoying it and keeping your upcoming first grader busy, busy, busy! :)

August is a great time to spend reviewing important "sight word" vocabulary words.  These are words your child should be able to read and write automatically from memory, as he/she goes into First Grade.  The following link has some great ideas for working with these types of words at home:

Multi-sensory Ideas for Teaching Sight Words

You will see a downloadable list of words included on this website.

Happy August and happy learning!
