Read Together!
(1) For 5 minutes, focus your reading time together on your child's target sound (this could be reading from the school, reading a cereal box together, or enjoying a story together).

• If they are a strong reader, have them concentrate on producing their sound correctly as they read. (It might be helpful preparation for them to first point to each word they see that contains their sound on the page and THEN read the page.)

• If reading is tricky or stressful, spend some time reading TO them and together you can practice words you find that contain their sound. (Ex: "Once upon a time...hey wait! Once ends in the SSSS sound. Let's say that word together: Once.")

(2) Click HERE each day you practice to submit your homework.

If your child cannot correctly produce the words you find even with your help, switch to modeling the words while your child watches and listens (you can have them give you a thumbs up or thumbs down if you say the sound correctly to keep them engaged).
