Ways to help with letter fluency at home
We have learned all of our letter names and sounds and are working on building words and letter fluency. By letter fluency I mean knowing letter names and sounds at random very quickly without having to think about them. You can make a game out of it and when your done have them spell words with the letters.
We are working on consonant letter blends, word families and digraphs. Below are some videos.
Have them practice counting to 100 by 1's, 5's and 10's
Sight Words
Ways to study: make flashcards and have them use a fly swatter to swat the word you say, use words on cards to build sentences, have them practice before bed by hangiing the list on the mirror in the bathroom
