• reading  At-home Reading Info...
     
     
    Each child in first grade is expected to read for 15-20 minutes each night.  That reading can include being read to by an adult, listening to a book on tape/computer or independent reading.  
     
    **Daily sight word practice counts too!  
     
     
     
    WANT MORE??
    If you'd like tools to document at-home reading more frequently than the reading journal does, below I've attached a daily reading log and some different reading response sheets that can be used to support/enhance your at-home reading time.  Please know that this is optional.  I am happy to have a look at your child's log or responses on a weekly basis in addition to the at-home journal- so if you choose to use them, please have your child bring them in on Monday mornings and put them in my mailbox.  Happy Reading!!
