Rhyme time

“I am thinking of an animal that rhymes with big. What's the animal?” Answer: pig. What else rhymes with big? (dig, fig, wig) This allows the student to think and feel like they are playing a fun game with their parents.

Partner students up or facilitate a whole group time to gently toss a ball around to each other, the person that catches the ball has to think of a word that begins with the letter of the alphabet starting with A. You can also do rhyming words the same way.

Letter magnets: Have a set of the alphabet letters on the refrigerator and while you are cooking dinner and/or cleaning up the kitchen, you can “quiz” them on the letter sounds. These few minutes of the day will really make a huge difference!

Keep It Going:
You can play this game anywhere, but the best place is while driving. It’s a great game for learning nouns and thinking fast.

How to play:

As you pass things while driving, take turns naming as many things as you can. For example, say “tree, building, sign, traffic light, shop, chair, grass, clouds”, etc.Try to keep an unbroken chain of words throughout the trip.This game is really fun and also requires a lot of thinking. Your child has to really concentrate and think on his toes to not break the continuous stream of words.

Classroom Activity: Red Light, Green Light

A simple, yet effective game I like to play is “Green light, red light” with my students outside on the playground. This allows for me to see where their listening and comprehension skills are.

Read stories to the class and have them act out the parts you read, a good one for this is “Three Billy Goats Gruff”

Kitchen conversations:
Take advantage of daily activities. For example, while in the kitchen, encourage your child to name the utensils needed. Discuss the food you'll be eating, their color, texture, and taste. Where does the food come from? Which foods do you like? Which do you dislike? Who will clean up? Emphasize the use of prepositions by asking him or her to put the napkin on the table, in your lap, or under the spoon. Identify who the napkin belongs to: "It is my napkin." "It is Daddy's." "It is John's." To the students, you are just talking and conversing but really they are gaining so much knowledge from you.
