Please have your child read to you every night for 15 minutes.  If they are having difficulty, you can read a page, then they can read a page. 

You can make your own reading games. 

• You will need a file folder, a pencil, markers, a die, and game pieces (such as a piece of cereal, penny, m&m). 
• Draw a two-inch-wide S-shaped path from one end of an open folder to the other.  Make horizontal lines to create 28 spaces.
• Have your child use colored markers to write a letter (A to Z, in order) in each space.  They should leave two blanks where you can write fun instructions: "Fell in alphabet soup.  Go back two spaces."  or "Sing the ABC song and advance to M".
• To play, roll the die and move that many spaces with your game piece. Then, say a word that starts wit the letter you land on (example: "elephant" for E).  Help your child by reminding them what sound the letter makes.  The first player to reach Z wins.  If you put spelling words in the spaces instead of letters, have them read the word then give you a definition or have them give you a rhyming word, opposite, or another word that means the same thing.
