When I tested them at the beginning of the year, NOT A SINGLE student knew all their letters and sounds. In fact, I only had 2 students that knew any letter sounds at all. I am pleased to say that by November, all but 1 of my original Cubs knew ALL of their letter names AND sounds! Yep, in less than 3 months we had reached our first class goal. I have to say, my little low one is still struggling with her letter names and sounds. She is very close, but still has a few to learn. Now, how did I do it? I didn't. My Cubs, my parents, and I ALL worked together. Without this trifecta, we would not be experiencing the success we are.
I am very excited to share with you the things I have learned this year. So please stay tuned. The journey is just beginning.
