My favorite animal is a Dog.

My favorite food is Steak or shrimp.

My favorite things to do are: Ride my bike, read and swim.

Welcome back to my students from last year…you’re now 1st graders! I can’t wait to work with you again soon!

And welcome kindergarten students! My name is Christine Rydlicki, I am the Early Childhood Specialist (ECS) at William Ford Elementary School. I will be meeting you all soon and I can’t wait to begin to read together! I look forward to seeing all of your smiling faces soon!

This game helps students with spelling easy words using phonics, your child is asked to find a letter that makes a certain sound to help build a word.

This link will give you a variety of other games that help you child with letter sounds and spelling simple words.

This book is a level that we would be reading at the end of kindergarten. There are many words in the book that you know from your word cards, and some that you do not know, so you will use the pictures to help you along with the sounds in the words.

When reading you ask yourself..”Does that make sense?” “Does that sound right?” “Does that look right?”

This is an online game from ABCYA.com that is like the “Lotto” sight word game we played at school.

This game is available on abcya.com. Follow the link to go directly to the game. Your child should start at the ‘pre-primer’ level and work their way up. They will be asked to spell words like “can” “hat” etc, from a set of mixed up letters.

You will need a pencil and paper or a dry erase board and marker to write with me today. We are writing about the book we read yesterday, so make sure you read that book first!

We are reading the book “My Big Brother”, this book has some tricky parts, so be careful and point to each word as you read.
