Last week we introduced our first reading strategy, EAGLE EYE.  When reading if you don’t know a word, what can you do?  Look at the pictures for a clue.  

 Anytime your student is reading remind them to practice their EAGLE EYE strategy when they come to a word they do not know, look at the picture for clue.  

This week we started our second
reading strategy which was
S-T-R-E-T-C-H-Y SNAKE.
Today we used slinkys to help us stretch the sounds and sound out words. Have your child practice these two strategies when reading their 20 minutes a night at home! 


More strategies to come….
