Alphabet
Find objects in your house that begin with the letters h, k, n and p. Write or draw a picture of some things you find.
Review your letters and sounds by playing these songs:

Sight Words
Review your A - C Level sight words
I, a, am, at, can, go, is, like, me, see, the,
to, dad, he, in, it, look, mom, my, on, up, we,
and, are, come, for, got, here, not, play, said, you.
Review these sight words with these videos
Level A song: htps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h_Tg_pzh3Q0
Level B song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4O5aHNnQLgE
Level C song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RDBKwChlunQ
If your child knows the A-C sight words, they can try the D-F sight words
day, down, into, looking, she, they, went, where, will, your, all, away, back, big, her, over, this, want, who, with, came, have, help, next, now, one, some, then, was, what.

Level E song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_893KdHDbB0
Level F song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UUhczekj93Y
If your child is having trouble with any of the sight words they can build the word with playdoh, rainbow write it (print the word tracing it in many different colored crayons), print them in the driveway with chalk or cut the letters out and practice building the word and mess it up and build it again.
===============================================================================
Reading
*Read a book in a quiet voice. Then, read a book in a loud voice.
*Continue using Raz-Kids. Be sure to “read” the books, and not just “listen” to the books. You will gain points when you “read” the books.

Writing ideas
* Draw a picture of your family. Label your picture using one word to describe each family member.
* What do you look like? Use a mirror to draw and label yourself!
Remember to sound out the words you do not know and put your spaces between the words and use your sight words to help!
