Kindergarten, week 14, day 4

Read: Pup in the Tub

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?

Adding on fingers

1. Hold up 3 fingers on one hand and 2 on the other. How many fingers in all?
2. Try other pairs that make 5 or less.

Stopping

1. Roll a ball to your child; they stop it with a hand, then a foot, then a pillow.
2. Stopping is a push too. Which stopped it best?

Read-aloud: The Three Billy Goats Gruff

1. Read “The Three Billy Goats Gruff” aloud, and let your child turn the pages.
2. This is an old tale, told for a long time. Afterward, ask: what did someone in the story learn?
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.
