Monday Word Sorts
On Mondays your child will bring home a word sort. This will need to be completed at home. On Friday your child will be assessed on the word families listed on the sort, along with the sight words found at the top of their word sort sheet. Please help your child study these words and other words that follow that same pattern throughout this week. The word sort does not need to be turned in, it is a resource for you to use at home.
