Parent/Teacher Conferences

Good Turnout for our Parent/Teacher Conferences! If I could stress anything to you, it is to work on helping your child know the letters and sounds of each letter introduced. Point out letters and their sounds everywhere you go. If you eat at Olive Garden and you know we have been learning the I,
u, and the e, point that out to them. Say look here is the i and e. Let's say their sound. I says ____like igloo and the e says _____like elephant. The Letter Factory DVD by LeapFrog sings the same songs that we sing in class and shows the letters and makes the sounds for the children. Remember we are learning the short sounds of the vowels not the long sounds. Ex. For A- Apple not Acorn
