Superkids: Reading, Writing, and Phonics
We will be meeting a new Superkid, Sal, for the letter Ss. We will continue to work in small groups to practice our literacy, phonics, and letter writing for Aa, Oo, Cc, and Gg. We have also started working on our decoding and blending skills, which is the beginning of learning how to read! The students are very excited to start learning these skills.
