How can you help at home?

 

Read, Read, Read!

 

Read to your child often! If they have a favorite book, read it to them again and again. As you read, ask questions: What is happening on this page? Why did this happen? What do you think will happen next? Point out the letters at the beginning of certain words and the sound they make.  Bring them to the library at least once a week to borrow new books. Point out words all around them- on the street sign, in the circular at the grocery store, on the cereal package. Give your child a notebook to write in at home. Have them decorate the notebook to make it special and encourage them to write down stories, lists of words, facts they learn, etc.

 

Fondly,

Mrs. Sahns
