Wow!  We’re really moving along on the letters!  So far, we’ve studied M, F, B, S, J, P, H, D, C, A, T, E, Y, and O.  We have also studied numbers 0-10.  Keeping those skills in mind, below are articles and fun activities for you and your child to explore at home together.

 

                                             

 

READING

v       Read to your child every night if you can.  It is one of the most important activities the two of you can share.  Use the time to cuddle up together and make the reading experience loving and enjoyable. 

 

v     Remember not to turn every reading experience into a lesson.  Your overall goal is to provide a pleasurable reading experience.

 

v     Occasionally, have your child place his/her finger under each word as the two of you read.

 

v     Ask your child to predict what will happen next at a natural point in the story. 

 

v     Ask your child if he/she liked the way the book ended.  If not, ask how he/she might change it.
