We have been working hard identifying consonant blends, compound words, vowels, and sight words! We are working on sentence structure and differentiating between questions and statements!
Ask your child about the rule for 'c' and 'k' sounds!! (A word begins with 'k' if it is followed by e, i, or y and a word begins with 'c' if it is followed by a, o, u, or any consonant!) This is helpful when they say, "But I don't know which one it starts with because they both make the 'k' sound!"
Tonight we have 'C' letter recognition and phonemic awareness homework!
