This week the children learned to read "Zac the Rat", a story that uses simple, easily decoded words. A copy of this book was sent home with the students on Friday. Please have your daughter/son read this book to you (remember to use your "pointer finger" to point to the words as they are said). If your child does not recognize a word, they know to "s-t-r-e-t-c-h" out the letter sounds to decode the word.
This little book is from the learning to read website, http://www.starfall.com/. I encourage you to go to this site with your child to explore all the reading games and activities.
