Sight words and Special Sounds

Please continue to practice ALL of the sight words we have learned this year!  It is important that your child not only be able to read them but also write them.  Call out the sight word to your child but do not show them the word.  Have them write the sight word as quickly and accurately as they can. 
Our new sight words since winter break:

was, she, he, will, no, not, that, they, did, get

We have also learned about some special sounds... digraphs!  When these letters are put together they create a new sound.

SH, TH, CH, WH, PH

We have learned some L and R blend sounds...
SL, BL, PL, GL, FL, CL, PR, TR, DR, BR

Please practice reading these, stretching (sounding) out words and spelling words with these when writing. 

Thank you for helping your child succeed!
