Two developmentally appropriate classroom activities to support development of the component are:

Having students hold up a stick while reading, when they hear the vocabulary word from our Vocabulary wall. This can be differentiated, by having higher level thinking students write out the Vocabulary word on a white board and or on the other side if the stick.

Have students work with a partner to play, "I spy a Vocabulary word". They can use a sticky note or highlighter, to help mark the words that they see which match the word wall.

One at-home activity:

The activity that helps support learning vocabulary would to send two sets of vocabulary cards home, and having students engage with a game of memory with their family.

Website recommendation to assist families with developing the component at home, would be, "Reading Rockets" - Vocabulary: Activities for Your Kindergartener.

This website provides step-by-step guidance for families on how to support their child's learning. It offers not only written activities but also instructional videos that demonstrate how to put the activities into practice at home.

Two developmentally appropriate classroom activities to support development of the component are:

An effective activity is having students read a story that includes a clear sequence of events, such as The Three Little Pigs, and then returning to their seats to organize the events of the story in the correct order. This helps reinforce their understanding of story structure and strengthens sequencing skills, which are essential for reading comprehension.

Having students write down and or draw a Picture of events that happened in a book we read. Having students then sit in the teacher chair to share with their peers.

One at-home activity:

An at home activity would be having families bake or cook together and follow a recipe. Allowing them to not comprehend the recipe text as they place ingredients and follow directions.

One website to assist families with developing the component at home:

A helpful tool is a video recorded by Valley Central School District, which helps families understand the importance of asking questions throughout and at the end of a story. It helps families understand what type of questions to ask. It helps families to see how we ask questions in the classroom and how easily comprehension practice can be with everyday activities at home.

Two developmentally appropriate classroom activities to support development of the component:

Playing blending softball - Have students take turns hitting the ball ( Starting the word sound), and the child who then gets up to Bat will be the child who sounds out the entire word as a whole.

Doing a game of, "Rhyme Relay: Divide the class into teams and set up a relay race with a rhyming twist. Prepare a set of pictures (or use real life objects)" ( McArdle,2023).

One at-home activity:

Having families sing rhymes together, this can be done by the educator simply sending home a list of rhyming words, and having the families work together to create songs.

One website to assist families with developing the component at home:

The website known as, "My Teaching Cupboard", has a variety of activities that can be done at home to help support phonemic awareness. Many of them don't require any or if anything very low cost supplies.

Two developmentally appropriate classroom activities to support development:

Modeling through, " finger-point reading

That means to follow the words with your finger from left to right as you read them. Your beginning reader will do the same thing for awhile" (Reading Rockets, 2024).

Letter sound card match game, Students will engage with their peer using a photo card of an object or animal then place the beginning letter sound with it. They will be turned over and try to find the matching beginning letter sound.

One at-home activity:

Using alphabetic letters, place them out of order on the fridge and have your child begin to think of words to spell using the letters. It may help to have cards to help support create words, they can choose from randomly to spell and become familiar with the letters and their sound.

One website to assist families with developing the component at home:

I would recommend the website Reading Rockets, which provides a comprehensive focus on phonics and text decoding. The site offers a range of instructional videos that illustrate how to implement various activities while emphasizing their educational significance. Additionally, it presents multiple strategies for practicing phonics using readily available household materials.

Two developmentally appropriate classroom activities to support development of the component:

Partner pair reading - Students will pair up with a student who is on another level then them to either support their friend with reading short story books or be given support.

Invite students to take turns approaching the smartboard to add one letter at a time to form each word. Once the sentence is complete, have individual students come up to read the entire sentence aloud.

One at-home activity:

Have students bring home a decodable book, that has the vocabulary words we are working on. Then having them read it for each of their family members and highlight the vocabulary words they understand and may needed greater context clues to grasp.

One website to assist families with developing the component at home:

I believe the website known as; Florida Center for Reading Research, effectively addresses all key components of reading instruction, with a particular emphasis on fluency. It offers at least three targeted activities, each accompanied by printable practice sheets and detailed instructions to guide families implementation and support skill development.
