2nd grade, week 9, day 4

Read: The Town Mouse and the Country Mouse

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: who was in the story, and what happened?

Across the country

1. Write which states you would cross to get from your state to an ocean.

2. Name the state farthest from yours.

Read-aloud: A Day on the Space Station

1. Read “A Day on the Space Station” 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.
