This week we want to continue loading the grammar by memorizing our charts A-H.  Copying the chart is a great learning tool!  And remember to "scale" the memorization work to the needs of your child/children.  As your child memorizes a chart, have him/her bring in a copy of the memorization work you require for your home and we will add a sticker to their "Grammar Puzzle".  This is just a small positive reinforcement to support your efforts at home. 

Have a wonderful week!
