Kindergarten, week 3, day 4

Day 14 of 180 · Science: Seeing and hearing · about 70 minutes

Reading20 min

Read: Pit, Pat

  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 your child to tell it back: what happened first, next and last?
Math20 min

Writing 9 and 10

  1. Write 9, then 10. Ten is the first number with two digits: a 1 and a 0.
  2. Fill a whole ten frame: a full ten frame is 10.
Science15 min

Sounds you can feel

  1. Hum with a hand on your throat and feel it buzz.
  2. Sprinkle rice on a pot lid and tap the lid: the rice jumps, because sound makes things shake.
Read-aloud15 min

Read-aloud: The Hat Cat

  1. Read “The Hat Cat” aloud, and let your child turn the pages.
  2. Afterward, ask: who was your favorite in the story, and why?
  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.
