We are practicing writing sentences with proper capitalization and punctuation. It would be helpful for your child to write stories with a beginning, middle, and end.

First semester, we will practice writing perfect penmanship.  Second semester, we will start learning cursive writing.  We will need lots of practice!

We are using the Sitton Spelling program.  Each week, you will receive a parent letter home with skills to work on with your child for the week.  Your child will also bring home a list of spelling words to be worked on this year.  This is not just a weekly lesson but words to be learned forever, so that he/she will know how to spell the words whenever writing.
