Star Writers!

At the end of kindergarten, all students should be able to write at least one complete sentence. In first grade, they will work towards complete paragraph writing. Make sure your child is ready for first grade!

How to help your child to become a star writer…
-Remind your child that we always start writing with an uppercase/capital letter. Drawing a box around the first letter helps to refresh their memory.
-Remind your child that we always end our sentences with an ending mark. They can choose a period, exclamation mark, or question mark. Use circle to help them remember to add an ending mark.
-Always have your child reread their sentences out loud to you. This is the revision time to check for any mistakes or forgotten punctuation.

We Can Study Words!

Here are some examples of how to study words to see similarities when reading, writing, and spelling new words. This is an easy game to practice at home. You can use rhyming words with the same ending, we call these word families. You can mix up the words and then your child can sort them into two groups based on their ending. Have fun!
