Letter Study: Bb
Every letter has a hand gesture that I am teaching with the sounds. Not all children hear the sound alone. Some children need to 'see & feel' the sound in order to make a connection to the letter/sound symbol. Below is a link that will bring you to a short YouTube video that you can do with your child. If your child is needing some extra support, I encourage you to do this video with your child at least 4 times a week. Just click below and it will bring you to the video.

~When you return the Wednesday envelope each week, fold it in half and place it on the right side of their folder. If you need to return anything, please tuck it behind the envelope rather than placing it inside. Thank you!
