NIGHTLY READING BOOKS:

Your child will begin bringing home a short decodable reader (a small book with color pictures and about eight pages).  These decodable readers are in addition to the black and white phonics reader sent home once a week.  Every Thursday, your child will read his/her book to me or a teacher’s aide. As each book is mastered, s/he will receive a more advanced book to practice at home for homework.  If your child is still struggling to read his/her current book on the day it gets read in class, the same book will be sent home for another week of practice. I will log when I read with your child on the back of his/her behavior log.
