Reading Groups

Some of you may be wondering: "what does my child do during their reading group?" We do a range of activities to build our knowledge of letter names, sounds, sight word recognition, and reading simple decodable books. We use letter tiles, picture cards, white boards, and you may have heard about our reading fingers- if not ask your child :) 

This week's book is thematic- Five Little Pumpkins. Reid and Chloe take a picture walk of their books. The first time we read a book, we preview the pictures to familiarize ourselves with the book and it helps our ability to read and figure our the words.

Luke and Rylan take a look at their book.

We also work on our sight words in reading group. When students have mastered a word, they get a sticker! I can tell many of you are practicing at home! The kids come in the door in the morning begging to read the words to me!
