This week we are focusing on the letters Jj and Ww!
Practice reading and writing these words: jet, wet, Jen, Will, west, nest, job…

Here are some videos to help your child learn how to spell these words:

We have been working extremely hard on our writing lately. The students are impressing me with how much they can write. At this point in the year I am looking for three sentences independently. Ask your child what they have been writing about in school and ask them to write you a story at home. We are focusing on capitals, periods, using spaces between our words, writing smaller and neater, making sure our letters are touching the line (not floating away), adding lots of details to our story, and most importantly stretching out words and writing all the sounds we hear.
