Home activities with your child

There are a few things you can do at home with your child that will reinforce what we are doing in school.

1.  Make sure they can identify and print the letters in their first name (JK) and first and last name for SK.

2.  When reading have your child count the words in a sentence.   This helps children understand that letters make up words and words create a message.

3.  Practice the alphabet with your child, focusing on the sounds that the letters make.

4.  Read with your child every day. This is one of the most important things you can do for your child. 

5. Let your  child practice using scissors.   Remind them that their thumb should point to the sky when cutting.
