Not much longer and these sweet kids will be off to first grade!! We are really going to buckle down and start getting prepared for next year. Please make sure to keep letting your child read to you EVERY night! Remember that the child needs to be at a level C by the end of kindergarten. Also, keep reading to your child at least 20 minutes a night. This helps with their fluency and their ability to read with expression.
