Word Rings, Library Books and Daily Reading

We just want to send a reminder about the importance of the word rings and daily reading with your child. The word rings are considered "sight words" and are the most prominent words used in books.  The words they learn from the word rings are the building blocks of reading, and the sooner those building blocks become solid, the sooner your child becomes a fluent reader.

We also ask that you continue to read your child's library books, or any other "Good Fit" books with them, each day.  We understand the scheduling demands on families, and strongly encourage you to find 10-15 minutes each day for reading. Hearing someone read is another building block to a successful reader, and the more building blocks we can strengthen, the more confident and independent a reader becomes.

Please continue to work on the word rings, and return them for new ones once mastered.  We thank you for the continued support at home as we continue to develop reading skills.

PS. There are approximately 30 different word rings to master (as soon as possible)
