New Groups

The new intervention groups have begun meeting.  Each group consists of a mixture of new and returning students.  The children have acclimated well and already know classroom procedures and routines.  Many of the first graders read a story this week about wheels.  One group is working with a new program called Horizons.  We are piloting it for next year.  That group read about Gorman the goat.  The second graders read The Tortoise and the Hare.  They learned sometimes it is better to be slow and steady instead of racing ahead.  Please continue to read at home with your child.  Repeated reading of the same story will help your child become a more fluent reader.
