In literacy I introduced 3 new word wall words:  I, a, see .  I am using a lot of repetition and exposure when introducing new words.  The kids are building a little book collection in their book boxes.  I am working hard to instill the importance of pointing to each word as they read.  Speaking of reading...ask your child about the difference between echo reading and choral reading.   We've been doin...
