Five activities to keep in mind to keep while building literacy skills at home:
- READ books together:
- Have them sit on your lap and follow your finger as you read.
- TALK about the book:
- What was funny/scary/surprising?
- What do you think happens next?
- Make sure to pass the conversation back and forth. Even if they are babbling, giving them time to respond and interpreting their responses will help them learn.
- Get ready to WRITE by doing activities that build fine motor skills:
- Drawing, ripping and cutting paper, and building with blocks.
- PLAY games:
- Hold the book upside down or backwards and start reading it if they don’t notice the change.
- Pretend to be the characters in the story.
- Make up your own stories.
- SING:
- Singing slows down and breaks apart each word into unique syllables. This helps them learn words and helps get the ready to sound out words when they are learning to write.
