Ways to Work on Reading and Writing Through Play
Ways to Work on Reading and Writing Through Play
- Read a book to your child every day
- Ask your child to read one of his mini books to you
- Verbally identify the beginning sound of items in your house (“Table, T-T-Table- what sound do you hear?)
- Make an alphabet museum in your house- find an item for each letter around the house and label them by the beginning sound using scrap paper
- Build vocabulary by labeling items in your house or by sorting toys by category (sort toy vehicles or animals by type, sort your son’s books as fiction and nonfiction)
- Write letters and numbers using your fingers in fun sensory material like shaving cream, finger paint and soap. Pinterest has a million ideas like this if you're feeling creative!
- Watch episodes of Alphablocks on YouTube
