Reading:  Our genre is narrative nonfiction.  We will be reading selections on how to care for animals.   We will be determining the  main idea of each selection, and we will also be learning to use the text features of photos and captions to gain additional information.

Sight Words:  By the end of the week your child should be able read these quickly and easily.  Please post this letter in a handy spot (on the fridge, etc.) and have your child practice reading through these words a couple of times each day.
