District Literacy Page

I am finding the resources on the Billings School's website are very helpful! One I would like to share today is the primary literacy website. It is full of ideas for teachers and parents to work with kids on writing and reading.

The fall projects are endless, but this week and next we will explore leaves. The following weeks are pumpkins and bats!

First reading update!

Greetings! We have been working hard on our literacy centers, Lead 21, and spelling.

Below is a link to a blog that has sight words listed by grade. It never hurts to go back and review previous lists.

Practice, practice, practice!

Our spelling words this week are:

am, at, map, tap, ham, hat, sat

Bonus- had, all

The real practice is noticing the cvc pattern with short a in any word.

Welcome

Welcome back to school, students and families! I am excited to introduce my blog and can't wait to integrate this into our learning and communication. This will grow rapidly, so keep an eye out!
