Homework
Frequency: included

Details: There will be no "assigned" homework, but I can share activities that caregivers have the option of using at home with their child to help improve their reading skills.

Please have a piece of textured material in which the student can trace their finger over as needed (it can be fabric, textured paper, sandpaper, clay in a tray, etc.). This will be needed from time to time to assist with letter-reversal work and spelling.
