This week, we're working on following directions!
Practice giving 1 and 2 step directions, like: "Hand me a pencil." "Clap your hands and touch your head." "Get the towels from the basket and put them in the washing machine."
Give this worksheet a try!
Practice reading and identifying each word below.
PRINT lined paper for written work.
Write the words on index cards and spread them out. Ask your child to identify each card by name. Ex. "Cat." Touch "cat."
Go over and review the index cards from previous weeks.
Modification: students who have a difficult time with writing, write words out on index cards and cut the letters into strips. Scramble up the letters and ask your child to spell the given word.
Modification: have an index card with the word written out to use as a model.
Modification: hand-over-hand to assist with spelling, or have your child place the letter strip over the letter on the written model.
