Reading:

We have two new “popcorn” words this week.  Also, your child will be working 
on learning the sound of two letters this week.  The letters are “d” 
and “k.”  Have your child tell you the sounds for the letters “d” and “k.”  
Ask your child to list things that begin with the “d” and “k”  sound. 
We are also reading words that contain the letters that we have been 
studying.  Please help your child practice “sounding out” and reading these 
words at home.
