First grade is a big year in the area of reading. Your child will make so many gains in this area and your support at home is very important. As with a lot of things, "practice makes perfect" and it takes a lot of practice every day with reading to become a better reader. Thank you to those of you who signed the contract and are participating in the RAH program this year. If you are still interested and need the information sheet again, please contact me and let me know. I'll be happy to send another home for you to sign and get a book home with your child today!
HAPPY READING!
Mrs. Halon
