Ideas to Help Support Your Child's Writing at Home
-Give your child a special journal to write in each night that can be kept in a special place. Encourage your child to sound out the words independently.
-Practice writing numbers, letters, sight words, and sounding out words using a multi-sensory approach. Pour salt, sand, or shaving cream onto a cookie sheet or shallow pan. Make sure the bottom of the pan is covered. Ask your child to use his/her finger to practice writing!
-Help your child write a book. Fold pieces of paper in half and staple the side. Ask your child to write a book about anything he/she would like. Remind your child to use lots of colors in the illustrations as well as details in the drawings. Have your child bring the finished book to school to share with the class!
