Read: Kip and the Crab

1. Your child reads it aloud to you, then reads one page again with expression, the way a character would say it.
2. When your child is stuck, say the first sound and let them finish the word, rather than saying the whole word.
3. Afterward, ask: where did the story happen? How do you know?

Copying nature

1. People copy animal and plant parts to solve problems: a helmet like a turtle's shell, flippers like a duck's feet.
2. Your child invents something copied from an animal and draws it.

Read-aloud: Dinosaurs Are Still Here

1. Read “Dinosaurs Are Still Here” aloud, and let your child turn the pages.
2. This one is true. Afterward, ask: what is one new thing you learned? Then find one more fact in it together.
3. On the read-along you can show the pages on a big screen, or let it read the words aloud while each one lights up.
