Please read to your child most nights. Towards the second half of the year (or earlier if they are ready) have your child read to you!
It will also help their reading, if you help them practice sight words a 3-4 times per week.
Have your child practice all the alphabet letters, upper and lowercase, as well as the letter sounds throughout the year. You can do this with flash cards, games and writing.
Your child will need home practice writing numbers and letters.
