Word Work
Each week we will focus on 5 high frequency words that we would like all children to master. We will introduce the words on Monday and practice them daily. We would encourage you to take 5-10 minutes of time per night to review these words. We are including a set of activities that might inspire you and your child (found in Google Classroom), as we hope this can be made into a fun activity at home. Please do not feel limited to these ideas. We encourage you to find interesting and engaging ways to practice these words together.
