Kindergarten, week 10, day 4

Read: Sip, Sip, Sip

1. Your child can sound out every word in it: it uses only letters they know, plus a few sight words. Point under each word as they read.
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?
