GREAT NEW WEBSITE DISCOVERY (posted by Jacki Christy; 03/06/13)

A candidate interviewing for a position at American Academy told me about a great website she uses for reading instruction. I just checked it out, and it looks great. I will introduce it to my students and hopefully they can then utilize it at home for additional practice with your assistance. You do have to register but it's FREE!

DECEMBER - JANUARY READING LOGS
I apologize for uploading these a few days into the month. Reading logs for December and January have been uploaded as one document. While reading every day is important and great practice, we are not requiring it to be done every day over the break. As noted on the forms, please read at least five of the ten vacation days in December and three of the six in January. The December reading log will be due upon return from the winter break. Thank you!
READING WITH TECHNOLOGY (posted by Jacki Christy; 09/17/12)
There are some fabulous videos available in the links section, on the Kindergarten homepage, as well as in the Academic Drawer accessible via the website.

Go to the School Website, main page. Under Homework Help click on the link that says myfiles, then click on Academic File, click on Elementary, click on Christy, click on Shared Files. There are some fun videos to practice letters and sounds. The more they see, hear, sing, and write the letters, the sooner they will remember them.

The student user name is: s (for student)

Their password is: 123

There is so much wonderful technology to support children in learning, where the child just thinks they are having fun! A game I recently purchased for my granddaughter for the Ipad is: created by 22Learn and is simply called Sight Words. They are learning to read with Word Aliens. It is a fabulous “game”. It has 6 different games and can be geared from PreK to 3rd grade words.

PowerPoint Downloads (posted by Jacki Christy; 09/04/12)
There are several PowerPoint Presentations that support the learning of phonograms in the download section. These work very well when saved directly to your desk top. Many begin upon opening. I am currently working on converting all of them to start automatically when saved to your desk top.
I have found some of the presentations have glitches or hyperlinks that are not functioning correctly. I am working to review all of them and fix them. It is time consuming. If you find an error, or have a problem with one of the presentations, please shoot me an e-mail so I can get it taken care of expeditiously.
THANK YOU!
WELCOME! (posted by Chris Todd; 08/19/12)
Welcome to first grade! We are looking forward to a great year and the opportunity to get to know you and your children. Enjoy your final evening of summer break!
