New sound: n says /n/

History15 min
Why we have rules
- Talk about one rule at home and what would happen without it.
- Rules keep people safe and make things fair. Write three house rules together.
- Rules poster (printable)teach.peabody.kids/printables/posters/class-rules-poster
Read-aloud15 min
Read-aloud: Duck Says Sorry
- Read “Duck Says Sorry” aloud. It is above what your child reads alone, on purpose: hearing longer stories builds words and understanding.
- Before reading, look at the title and the first page and ask: what do you think this story is about?
- 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.
