*REMINDERS*
Please practice kindergarten sight words at home! I have recently sent home the lists in the students' homework folders. You can practice these sight words in a variety of ways: play bingo, go fish, flash cards, etc.

*We are quickly approaching List 3. All students have been exposed to all sight words on list 1 and most of 2.
