Happy New Year! Let's READ!
January is a very exciting time in Kindergarten at PS 76 The Bennington School! During the month of January, we will be assessing all students' Reading Levels, Letter Name and Sound knowledge, and other literary skills. Please make sure, in order to ensure your child's progress, you read each and every night. In Kindergarten, students are reading approximately 10 minutes each day. This involves choosing books, thinking about the cover and what the topic is, taking a picture walk and looking at all of the pictures, and then reading the words and pictures in their heads. Independent Reading is not the only thing we do! We also do Partner Reading! At home, take the time to read with your child just as much as your child reads independently. Share your favorite stories, act them out, talk about the most memorable parts! Enjoy reading as much as we do!
