Dear Family Member,
have learned to spell the sound /ee/ (‘e_e’ as in The spelling words this week review the four different ways we Pete; ‘ee’ as in creek;
‘e’ as in he; ‘ea’ as in meal).
also suggest your child review the words independently by asking your child If at all possible, review the words each evening with your child. You may
to write the words a few times every evening. You will be surprised how much your child can learn in just 10–15 minutes of practice each night.
your child may be ready to begin reading silently. As children start to read Continue to have your child read every night. At this point in the year,
silently, they often subvocalize or “whisper read” to themselves. As your child continues to practice reading, he or she may start just moving their lips with
no sound; with more practice, he or she will finally feel comfortable reading silently. You can suggest that your child alternate reading a page of a story
aloud to you with reading a page silently to himself/herself to encourage the development of silent reading. However, let your child choose whatever way
he or she feels most at ease in reading.
