Let's Begin with Phonological Awareness (Simply Stated)
The ability to hear and play with parts of words
-Rhyming (Though this is a needed skill for reading, it is not on the VPK Standards)
-Combining two words to make a new compound word (star - fish, starfish)
-Combining syllables to make a word (cook - kie cookie)
-Combining onset and rime to make a word (the onset is the first consonant sound. The rime is the first vowel and cthe onsonant/s sound following /b/ /at/ bat, /bl/ /ack/ black)
-deleting parts of a word (hotdog without hot. dog, sister without ter. sis, ball without all /b/)
1. Select two -four activities from Dr. Jeans PowerPoint
2. Print out, picture read and play with parts of word families.
at family, an family, ap, all,
3. If your child enjoys video interaction/iPad games ...ONLY permit starfall.com or abcmouse
In fact, I insist.
4. Extend knowledge of lowercase letters and numbers.
After watching the video, suggest that your child retell the story using magnet lowercase letters on the refrigerator and singing the alphabet song while ordering the letters.
5. We are working on counting to 20.
This is a great stomp your shoes off song right before entering your home.
