Reread: Frog on a Log

  2. Find this week's sight words, “good” and “yes”, in the book or on their cards.
  3. Let your child pick one page to read to someone else in the family.
Math20 min

Longest thing hunt

  1. Cut a piece of string as long as your child's arm.
  2. Find three things longer than the string and three shorter.
Science15 min

Measure the sprouts

  1. Measure the sprouts with paper clips or blocks.
  2. Draw them, and measure again next week.
Read-aloud15 min

Read-aloud: Henny Penny

  1. Read “Henny Penny” aloud. If your child asks to hear it again, say yes: hearing a story twice is how it sticks.
  2. This is an old tale, told for a long time. Afterward, ask: what did someone in the story learn?
