Ideas for practicing words at home:

  • Write the words on cards. Spread them out on the table or floor. Read the words to your Firstie and have him or her point to, swat, or pick up the card with the word you say.

  • Using the cards from the previous activity have your student spell the words aloud. 

  • Have your student read the words to you.

  • Have your child write the words in the snow, on a paper bag, or type them on their computer. 

  • Give your Firstie a good, old fashioned spelling test.

  • Find some old magazines or newspapers and have your child cut out individual letters to use to build the words you’re working on. 


Digital Choice Board

Please refer to the Digital Choice Board if your child will be out of school for a prolonged period of time or if you are looking to extend their learning at home. We do not send home absent work in advance for travel. It is really difficult to replicate the work we do in class so we ask that you refer to the choice board assignments. We also encourage you to use Lexia, Raz, Moby, and iXL for ways to continue learning when gone.
