Reading Folders
Each week I will send home a reading folder on MONDAY. Inside the folder will be the spelling list for the week. There will be a spelling test each Friday. There will also be passages and stories that we've already read in class for your child to practice at home. Please make sure your child is studying spelling words and spending time reading at home each week. This will make a huge difference in their progress this year! The folder needs to be returned each Friday for homework credit. Thanks for all your reading encouragement from home!
