ACTIVITY 6 - SOUNDS OF WORDS
(continued)
How Can You Help?
• Encourage your child to sound out the words with the friendly voice.
Remind your child to look at the letters within the word while he or she
is sounding out the word.
• Using the objects from the learning toy, write each of the words on
cards. Have your child try sounding them out on his or her own. If your
child does it correctly, have him or her illustrate the word on the back
of the card. See how many your child can recognize.
• Using the cards mentioned above, lay two words out in front of your
child, and then say the name of the word slowly for your child. Allow
him or her to decide which word you have said. Check the illustration
on the back of the card for correctness.
