Monday through Thursday we read stories from our textbook.
- There were the regular questions, but we learned about three new genres:
- One was an Informational Article about sandpipers. Afterwards we drew a picture of a nest with eggs in it.
- One was a Fable. So we learned that a fable teaches a lesson, called a moral.
- One was a Biography of John Audubon, so we looked at our Audubon Book and found the same picture in it that is in the textbook.
Friday we did an activity from
Games for Reading.
- Do This, Do That. This game works on listening skills.
- Give your child instructions, such as clap your hands 3 times, touch your nose, pat your tummy.
- The child must do exactly what you say.
- Work up to 4, 5, 6, etc. instructions in a row.
- You can also play this in the car by saying words or numbers they must repeat correctly.
- Let your child give you instructions, too.
