Kindergarten, week 19, day 4

Read: Fish in a Dish

1. Your child reads it, and you help with words they can't sound out yet. Look for the sh words.
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 your child to tell it back: what happened first, next and last?

Read-aloud: The Dog in the Manger

1. Read “The Dog in the Manger” 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.
