On Monday your Junior Kindergarten child will be sent home with a book bag. We will be sending their book bag home daily so that your child will have the opportunity to practice their reading skills every evening. Please listen to them read, offering guidance and assistance when necessary. Remember to be patient and encouraging.
Your child will begin our reading program with an alphabet book, please have him or her name the letter and tell you what sound that letter makes. Let your child read the words, pointing to each word as they read. Please date and sign the reading log and make sure your child returns both the book and reading log to school the next day in order to receive a new book.
Once your child is able to recognize all the letters and sounds, then your child will move on to levelled readers. Once your child begins reading a levelled reader, please discuss the story together. The discussion should include; their favourite part of the story, what happened in the story and what letters or words they recognize. This will reinforce what they have read and improve comprehension skills.
The more your child reads, the more confident they will become while developing a life-long love of reading.
Thank you for your cooperation in our program.

Just a Reminder:
With the winter months here, we would like to remind all of you, that your children should come to school dressed appropriately for the weather. Please help them practice to dress and undress themselves at home. Being able to undress and dress themselves, will help to build your child's sense of independence and confidence.
Book a Day program (SK's) - your child will continue to bring home a different book each day. Please read with your child!
