Miss LeMarr's Weekly Update
WEEK 9 - January 19 - 23
Notes from the Teacher 📝
This will be a small group setting over Zoom with a few kids and myself. It will last about 45 minutes. We will practice sight words, read a book, and discuss and learn other phonetic rules. Participating in a reading group would be beneficial for readers of all levels. I want your child to be a strong reader and participating in a reading group will be beneficial.
When your child gets to 3rd grade next year, they will be expected to read everything on their own. In 3rd grade, STAAR testing starts, and your child will have to complete the reading and math test all on their own.
Please fill out the survey if you are interested in your child being a part of one!Important Dates 📌
