D'Nealian Handwriting Practice
Future First Grade Parents:

Parents often ask how they can help to make the transition from kindergarten to first grade easier for their child.  Therefore, we are providing you with a list of Dolch words for your child to work with over the summer.  You'll notice that many words are familiar from kindergarten reading.  

Other activities to enjoy with your child are:

reading and discussing good literature

reviewing letters and sounds

keeping a summer journal

reading color and number words

counting to 100 by 5's and 10's

printing first and last names by using good D'Nealian form
