Reading: A Foundation for Success
Every week we will pass along some tips for reading with your children.
Give your child practice reading directions by following a recipe or doing a craft project together. Choose a simple recipe or project your child will have fun making. Ask your child to read the directions out loud to you. Work together, step-by-step. Then enjoy!
Make your child a reading detective. Hide a small toy or treat. Write clues that send your child from one part of the house to another to find the hidden item. (In nice weather, hide some clues outside as well.) Your child will have fun--and get some valuable practice reading.
Try a news scavenger hunt. Get a newspaper, or go online together, and give your child a list of things to find, such as:
- The name of a famous athlete.
- Today's weather forecast.
- A favorite comic strip.
- The name of a local restaurant.
- The title of a program at your public library.
- The movie schedule for your local theater.
After finding each item, your child can cut or print it out. Can your child locate everything on the list?
Mrs. Evans shared some then and now photos of her former kindergarteners.
