Please continue to review letters, letter sounds and sight words
with your child as often as you can. These words were introduced in
Kindergarten as “Star Words”. Your child will have a great start to
first grade if he or she is able to recognize and recall these words in
text and through writing. Please place a special emphasis on the
words listed below. Additionally, please continue to read with your
child daily, as it will help him or her have an enjoyable and confident
transition into first grade.
