As we learn to write...

We have been working very hard on our writing in the first 2 months of school! We are SO proud of the progress that all of our students are making!

I just want to send this as a reminder about what beginning writers often create.  It tends to follow the basic rules of sound and is considered phonetic. This type of writing is what we are looking for as they become writers. As we work on our writing this winter, you will see a progression from the phonetic to the proper spelling of words.

The following letter is a perfect example of what we read every day at school and it is one of my favorite types of writing to read!  Don't be alarmed if your child is writing in a similar way.

Thank you again for the continued support at home!
Happy Writing!
