Helping Your Child Learn to Read and Write

Easy Books We Make and Read
Click here to see all the books we made this year!

All books we make during the year will be posted here.

In our small group, each child reads each book out loud using strategies
to figure out the words
such as, getting your mouth ready, using picture clues,
looking for little words in big words, and remembering sight words.
At home, your child should read each book out loud to a grownup
then should add the title to our monthly Read-To-Me form.
Keep all the books we make in your "Book Treasure Box"
so your child can practice reading anytime!


Why Your Child Should Read for 20 minutes Every Day

Our Reading Teacher is Mr. Twaddell!
We learn that letters make sounds and pictures give us clues.
We play with the letter sounds and learn how to rhyme words.
We learn how to s-t-r-e-t-c-h words to help us spell when we write.
