Through this type of instruction, students are understanding that in the English language, we have letter sounds that combine to make words. Below you will find the units we are learning . The word lists the students are using to learn are on this document. You may use these words to help your student with their progress from school. Since all classes move at their own pace, we no longer have dates on our calendar. Please reach out to your child's teacher if you or your student are not sure what unit the class is covering.
