What Does Pig Do? Week

Sight Words:

I have started to test your child to see if they know their sight words for the first 9 weeks. I will be sending home a copy of the word list and the words that your child does/does not know. Please practice the words they don't know before the end of the first 9 weeks. If they knew the word - I put a check mark or a line by the word. If they didn't know it - I left it blank or it has a circle.

There is a link to these words on the side of this web page :

Sight Words (Its under Good Stuff to Print Off)

Study these words.

You can put the words on an index card. Put 10 words in at a time. When they know the word - put in a new word. Take out the words that they know. Throw them back in a few times for review. It's important to have words in there that they do know to boost confidence!
