Raz-Readers
This week I
sent home information about a website called Raz-Kids. This is a great website
that allows your child to have access to hundreds of eBooks. You can also
download a fee app for your iPad/iPhone or Android device as well.

Word Wall Words
Each week
your child will be introduced to new sight words. I call them popcorn words
because they “POP UP” a lot when we read.
Willard is moving away from traditional spelling tests. However, it is VERY important that you review
these words with your child each week.
Even though they will not be tested on these words, please have your
child practice reading, writing, and spelling them. How well your child knows these words will be
reflected on their grade card each quarter.
