One of the award's that Justin worked towards in Kindergarten is the Golden Key. This is not an easy award to earn because it involved learning many tricky phonemic sounds. Not everyone in his class will be able to earn the award because it is so tough but each student was encouraged to try.
In order to earn the Golden Key Award you must memorize sounds and rules that they will be able to use to decode 90% of the English language. The last 10% are sight words that don't follow any phonemic rules.
The Golden Key is one of their biggest goals to help "unlock" the mysteries of the English language. Knowing these important sounds is the "Golden Key" that can do it.
Way to go Justin!! We are so proud of you!!!
