This year has flown by! Your kids have grown so much in all areas! I began Fastbridge testing today and am so happy to hear your children reading so much better than at the beginning of the year. What an improvement!
My advice to you for the summer is to continue working on sight words with your child, along with reading every day! If you start off the summer with that habit of reading and practicing sight words, it will be a routine.
Please continue practicing tying shoes with your child too! I'm letting the pick a prize and I'm giving certificates!!!
