The Dolphin Digest--Week 1

      This week promises to be a very busy one in the Dolphin classroom. First, we will be sending home your child’s homework folder today. The folder comes home every Monday and you should find a list of activities for the week to be completed and signed and returned on Friday. The goal of homework is to begin to teach your child study skills and responsibility. For parents, the homework will keep you informed on the math skills and spelling words we will be practicing each week. Of course, every night your child should spend ten minutes practicing reading to you. Along with homework and spelling, we will begin our phonics program, Learning to Read by Reading Phonics. Our concentration will be on “short a” words with a review of consonants…t,s,m,b,f,and hard c. In math, we will continue recording tally marks and practicing numeral writing.
     My thanks for your attention and support of our children.
