Ms. Blunk

Language Arts

Ms. Blunk’s students should read, read, read, and practice writing.

Reading Ideas:                                                               

  • Read a short story aloud with your child. Have him or her tell you      what happened.
  • Practice high frequency word cards and syllable cards. We’ve included some syllables we have studied that you and your child could put onto cards if they don’t have them.
  • Keep a reading list of books that they read during the summer. Have your child pick books from the library that are in several different genres.
  • When riding in the car or walking on the street, have your child point out words they know, or have them divide into syllables words that are difficult. Check to make sure your child understands common words on signs such as caution, exit, push, pull, etc.
  • Have your child read books on tapes. Let them be the producer and   encourage sound effects. Let them share this with you or a younger sibling. When riding in the car, encourage your child to read license plates. Make a list and keep track of how many you find.
