Poetry Homework

Today the students added another poem to their collection in their red take home folders. Please have your child read it each night for homework. I will also continue to update sight word lists this week. It is important for them to build a strong sight word vocabulary, sight word recognition improves reading ability. The list of 12 words should be read ever night. This Thursday is Poem in Your Pocket Day and it is part of National Poetry Month. On this day, we will ask the students to select a poem and share it with others at school. Please share your favourite poem with us. Email us a video of you reciting your favourite poem or just send one in and we will share it with the class. Be part of the OJCS difference!
