Welcome to Ms. Rice's Web Page
Greetings! My
name is Sharon Rice, and I am a reading teacher at Moose Hill.
Kindergarten is a fun and exciting time for children. So much happens
here to prepare students to become life long learners. My goal
is to help my students develop the foundational skills and behaviors
that will support them in their journey towards becoming readers. In
order to meet this goal, I work with small groups of students to target
specific areas of weakness.
As
always, I encourage parents to read to your children everyday! Why?!
Research has shown that reading aloud is the single most important thing
you can do to help a child prepare for reading and learning! In
addition, it will encourage language develpment, build literacy skills
and instill a love of reading! As an added benefit, it's just plain
fun, and a wonderful way to bond with your child! Remember, you play a
vital part in your child's learning process!
I would like to suggest a terrific easy to read book that explains why reading aloud to your child is so vital. It also has some really good suggestions for fun read aloud books for you to enjoy with your child: Reading Magic: Why Reading Aloud to Our Children will Change Their Lives Forever by Mem Fox
I look forward to another exciting and productive year!
