Reading together can be stress free!

Make a Lifetime Reader

Demonstrate the importance of reading by your example and read together everyday.

Characters representing vowel sounds have a ‘Mc’ in their last name and characters representing consonants have a ‘Van’. 

  • a – Ann McDann
  • b – Bill VanDill
ALL DONE!

A few minutes of reading a day is plenty of time to move your child forward as a reader.   Your child may tire quickly, so if they seem ‘done’ then be done.  It is a great time to pick up a picture book and read to your child.

READING READINESS CLUES

Here are five clues that your child is ready to start learning to read:

INSTRUCTIONS

BEGIN

Begin by reading the 8-line story emphasizing the rhyming words. Then listen to the Waglz name and find the rhyming words in the corners looking for the one that doesn’t rhyme.

Continue

Under the Waglz character there is an ‘emerging reader’ appropriate sentence. If you touch the sentence a second sentence will appear. You’re now ready to move onto the next page

Hear my son, your father’s instruction, and forsake not your mother’s teaching.

– Proverbs 1:8
