Needs

1. A need is something we must have to live: food, water, a home, clothes.
2. Make a list of the family's needs together.

Read-aloud: The Dog and the Bone

1. Read “The Dog and the Bone” aloud. It is above what your child reads alone, on purpose: hearing longer stories builds words and understanding.
2. Before reading, look at the title and the first page and ask: what do you think this story is about?
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.
