Beginning of year

We are working hard to increase our STAMINA in reading during our 3 rounds of Daily 5.

One of my favorite subjects to teach in Kindergarten is reading. The reading improvement that you see as a kindergarten teacher is just AMAZING! Our reading program focuses on decoding, high frequency words and sight words. I use the terms high-frequency words and sight words interchangeably, but I recently discovered that there is a difference! {It takes me a little while sometimes! lol} High-frequency words are words that you see frequently in text {makes sense!}. They’re not necessarily difficult to decode, but they should be automatic since they are seen so often. Sight words are words that children need to know by sight because they don’t match the phonics rules. There’s usually a “tricky part” in these words.

I like to refer to them as brain words which I think is just so cute!
