Fundations

Students have been practicing their handwriting every day while perfecting the spelling of short vowel sounds in CVC words. They have been working on differentiating interrogative and statement sentences and learning about what punctuation to include in different sentences.  The children also have been reviewing trick words learned in Kindergarten.  All students are starting to shift this knowledge into writers workshop as they independently write their small moments.  As a reminder to your children, please help them remember to use the proper pencil grip and to start their letters at the top.  INQUIRE with your child what letters are, "plane line" letters.  WHY?
